If They Can Pray the Gay Away

Pray it away!

Focusing on Marcus Bachmann’s effeminacy and the miracle of marriages repaired by therapy, Edna Jean Robinson (Richard D. Curtin) sings the praises about the Bible’s power for heterosexual conversion.

“If They Can Pray The Gay Away” bounces along to the charming melody of “Talk to the Animals” but sung in the style of Gilda Radner with lyrics updated by Brian Alden

Lyrics

Mrs. Bachmann says that she gets messages from God,
The one she isn’t hearing is: Her marriage is a fraud.
In spite of rumors and the fact that he’s a nelly quirk,
Michele and Marcus try to prove mixed marriages can work.
Oh…If They Can Pray the Gay Away,
Her campaign could make it all the way.
He helps choose her outfits,
And fixes her hairdo.
When she gets glittered, he’s embittered,
He wants to wear some, too!
Oh…If They Can Pray the Gay Away,
Her campaign could make it all the way.
When they’re in the bedroom,
And she starts foreplay,
Without a reason, he’s on his knees ‘n
Prays the gay to stay!
Oh…If They Can Pray the Gay Away,
Her campaign could make it all the way.
If our highest office
Should turn Republican,
It could be that our First Lady is a…
It might be that our First Lady is a…
We’ll be free if our First Lady is a MAN!
