Gay Messiah


____________________ / Rufus Wainwright / I think this song is a humorous response to the hype / Gay Messiah / of Rufus, where medias promoted him as the new Gay / Want Two / Messiah that would take over the title after his good /___________________/ friend Elton John. Note how explicit his lyrics are in the bridge!
