The unofficial Sochi Olympics theme song

Raise your rainbow cockrings high for Kevin Yee’s unofficial Sochi theme song!

All across the world everyone will come together, unless you are gay

Cuz if you’re a homo then you’re probably not invited, that is what they’ll say

But there’s a flame in all of us, so flame the flames you’ve flamed until you flamed it

And raise your rainbow cockrings high

Let it glisten in the sky

There’s no need to be quiet

Let’s start a pussy riot

The Sochi Olympics . . . The Winter Games of hate.

So they can put their spandex on, atop their muscular physique and flaunt their bigotry

But every single queer, from Billie King to Johnny Weir, will flaunt their faggotry

There’s some gay in all of us (remember college), so dream the dream you dream and don’t stop dreaming the dream you dream

And raise your rainbow cockrings high

Let it glisten in the sky

Shout your gay propaganda

While you sit on your veranda

The Sochi Olympics . . . The Winter Games of hate.

And you should reach for your dreams unless your dream is to love

Then you’ll be locked up in jail

Sometimes we lose the battle, but we will win the war

And that is why I sing

So raise your rainbow cockrings high

Let it glisten in the sky

And honey, if you agree

Then turn off NBC

And the Sochi Olympics . . . The Winter Games of hate.
