Turn It Off

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!

Like a light switch, just ust go back

Really, what's so hard about that?

Turn it off!

Turn it off, right there!

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

Every time the Utah jags would lose

He started drinking

And I started thinking

"How am I gonna keep my mom from getting abused? "

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

My dad would say to me" now don't you dare start crying. "

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 laid there dying with my father and mother

Her very last words were

"Where is my brother?"

Turn it off! (Yeah!)

Bid those sad feelings adiue

The fear that I might get cancer too (haha)

When I was in fifth grade

I had a friend, Steve Blade (uh, Steve Blade)

He and I were close as two friends could be (we could be)

One thing led to another

And soon I would discover (what?)

I was having really strange feelings for Steve (ah-ah, feelings for Steve)

I thought about us on a deserted island (in the 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 Mckennly, I think it's okay if you're having gay thoughts")

("Just so long as you don't act on them")

No!

'Cause then you're just keeping it down

Like a dimmer switch on low (on low)

Thinking nobody needs to know (oh-oh)

But that's not true!

Being gay is bad, but lying is worse

So, just realize you have a curable curse

And turn it off! (Turn it off!)

Turn it off!

Turn it off!

Turn it off

Yeah, how do you feel?

The same! (aww)

And you've only got yourself to blame

You didn't pretend hard enough

Imagine that your brain is made of tiny boxes

The kind of box that 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, 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 just don't seem right (don't seem right)

Treat those pesky feelings

Like a reading light

Turn it off

Like a light switch on a cord

Now he isn't gay anymore

Turn it, turn it, turn it, turn it

Turn it, turn it, turn it, turn it

Turn it

Turn it off!
