Prayer is a powerful thing
In these tryin' times, we pray, we pray hard
But... there are some matters where we would be better servants of the Lord
By acceptin' what is & not botherin' him!

You can't pray the gay away (+ echo)
No matter what your preacher say (+ echo)
There's no fighting DNA
You can't pray the gay away!

Mama oh mama you can't blame yourself
Just cause your baby boy took your high heels off the shelf
Daddy thought football would make a man of him
But now he spends all his time cruising the gym

Well the Reverend Bill, at the church of Christ
Says he needs reprogramming "That boy ain't right!"
Send him off to camp where he could get fixed
Had the summer of his life - never saw so many dicks
You may not know it, but you know lots of them
Statistically speakin': 1 out of every 10
Every family's got one—you might call him Auntie Fred
Mama says he harmless, lest he's tryin' to give you head
