Turn It Off

Original songwriter: Robert Joseph Lopez, Matthew E Stone, Trey Parker

I got a feelin' that you could be feelin'

A whole lot better than you feel today

You say you got a problem well that's no problem

It's super easy not to feel that way

When you start to get confused because of thoughts in your head

Don't feel those feelings hold them in instead

Turn it off like a light switch

Just go click it's a cool little Mormon trick

We do it all the time when you're feeling

Certain feelings that just don't seem right

Treat those pesky feelings like a reading light

And turn 'em off light a light switch

Just go back really what's so hard about that

Turn it off

When I was young my dad would treat my mom real bad

Everytime the Utah jazz would lose

He'd start a drinkin' and I'd start a thinkin'

How'm I gonna keep my mom from getting abused

I'd see her all scared and my soul was dyin'

My dad would say to me now don't you dare start cryin'

Turn it off like a light switch

Just go flick it's our nifty little Mormon trick turn it off turn it off

My sister was a dancer but she got cancer

The doctor said she still had two months more

I thought she had time so I got in line

For the new iPhone at the apple Store

She lay there dying with my father and mother

Her very last words were where is my brother

Turn it off bid those sad feelings adieu

The fear that I might get cancer too

When I was in fifth grade

I had a friend Steve Glade

He and I were close as two friends could be

One thing led to another and soon I would discover

I was having really strange feelings for Steve

I thought about us on a deserted island

We'd swim naked in the sea and then he'd try and

Woah turn it off like a light switch

There it's gone good for you my hetero side just won

I'm all better now boys should be with girls that's heavenly father's plan

So if you ever feel you'd rather be with a man turn it off

Well elder McKinley I think it's okay that you're having gay thoughts

Just so long as you never act upon them

No 'cos then you're just keeping it down like a dimmer switch on low

Thinking nobody needs to know but that's not true

Being gay is bad but lyin' is worse

So just realize you have a curable curse

And turn it off turn it off

Turn it off now how do you feel the same

Then you've only got yourself to blame

You didn't pretend hard enough imagine that your brain is made of tiny boxes

And find the box that's gay and crush it okay

No no I'm not having gay thoughts alright it worked

Hey turn it off turn it off turn it off

Turn it off turn it off like a light switch

Just go click click click what a cool little

Mormon trick trick trick we do it all the time

When you're feeling certain feelings that don't seem right

Treat those pesky feelings like a reading light

Turn it off like a light switch on a cord

Now he's isn't gay any turn it turn it turn it

Turn it off
