Jesus knows I made some mistakes
It started with sponge-bob square pants, then mineral water and some Streisand tapes
Soon I was in over my head
A KD Lang poster over my bed
I was reading Blake
I thought it was too late

Don’t you fear cos help is on its way
This is a support network full for people like you who once were gay
Together we’ll watch competitive sports
I know it’s full of men in tight shorts
But we’ll be OK
Just my hold my hand and pray

Your mind is in the sewer
But Jesus is the cure
Take me to the water wash this man love away

I wanna be an ex-gay
Be an ex-gay
I’m gonna get on my knees, not to suck cock this time but to pray
Homosexuality is just a pair of Calvin Klein underpants away
I can be an ex-gay
Be an ex-gay

Who was it that said that love was blind?
We’ll get by, just try fucking your wife from behind
You got a church and family you don’t wanna hurt them
So what if the sofa don’t go with the curtains
Straight men don’t mind
Soon you will find

You’re an ex-gay
You’re an ex-gay
Swap your cous-cous for hamburgers, drink beer not Rose
May God strike us down with fury if we should stray
Be an ex-gay
Be an ex-gay
Halleluiah at last
I’m on the straight path
One day I’ll look back at photos of me in my mardi-gras leathers and laugh
Cologne, homewares and antique furniture are all in the past
I’ll be butch and not fey
Cos I’m an ex-gay

I believe in the Lord
The Lord believes in me
His courage gives me strength
His love is all I need
This love in unconditional
His faith in me is true
He loves me just for who I am
But not for what I do

But do I believe in a Lord
Who mocks my happiness
Who fills my heart with love
Then tells me it’s a test?
This ain’t some disease here
Who am I trying to please here
Even if I do survive and make it out of here alive
I’ll be so depressed it won’t matter anyway

Where in the bible does it say
That Jesus didn’t like gays?
His only enemies were hypocracy and greed
And I see plenty of that round here today
When did hate and fear decide who goes and who stays?

I over with fear
Won’t stay another minute here
You can brainwash us to stay with our wives
Ruin not one but two people’s lives
I stand before my church and God this day
See me as I am
An ex-ex-gay!
