Do I Disappoint You? Lyrics

Cover art for Do I Disappoint You? lyrics by Rufus Wainwright

I think that in this song the scene is the tension between a celebrity (Rufus) and a real beauty who the celebrity is interested in.

In this case, the beauty is a muscled, macho, cigar-smoking stud who floors Rufus.

The stud shows interest in Rufus, since he's a celebrity, but Rufus is wracked with insecurity and doubt by the situation.

that is such a wonderful, interesting interpretation! so theatrical, so Rufus. Even if it's not what he intended, i think i'll interpret the song the same way you did.
