Rufus Wainwright
Do I Love You Because You Treat Me So Indifferently?
Or Is It The Medication?
Or Is It Me?
Do I Love You Because You Don't Want Me To Rub Your Back?
Or Is It The Medication?
Or Is It You?
Or Is It True?
And I Better Be Prominently Featured In Your Next Slideshow
Because I Paid A Lot Of Money To Get You Over Here, You Know?
And If I Am Not Prominently Featured In Your Next Slideshow
I Don't Know What I'm Gonna Do
Do I Love You, Or Is This Feeling Just A Little Pain?
A Treasure Chest Is Broken Easily Open
And Usually I Am Such A Happy Prince
Behind The Iron Curtain, The City Walls A Solid Prison
And I Better Be Prominently Featured In Your Next Slideshow
'cause I Paid A Lot Of Money To Get You Over Here, You Know?
And If I Am Not Prominently Featured In Your Next Slideshow
I Don't Know What I'm Gonna Do!
Do I Love You?
Do I Love You?
Yes I Do
Do I Love You?
Yes I Do
