I'm not a homosexual and my heart is pretty set
But there is one man I've loved that way named Stephen Merritt
The soundtrack to my life I have worn out every cassette
In my Busby Berkeley I've danced with Stephen Merritt
If he taught a class on songwriting I'd be the teacher's pet
I've already learned all that I know from Stephen Merritt
With his mastery of language and a voice that makes me sweat
My heart skips a beat when I hear Stephen Merritt
Whether backed by an orchestra, a uke or string quartet
None of that affects my love for Stephen Merritt
He probably won't like this song 'cause I use the wrong emphasis
And he also doesn't like slant rhymes, Stephen Merritt
I'd grow a great big beard or shave it smooth with Gillette
I'd be a bear or a twink for Stephen Merritt
Realistically I'm just some dude on the internet
Who knows he'll probably never meet Stephen Merritt
