Y’all know, me bein’ the perfect lil’ angel that I am, I pretty much go to church every Sunday. Now,now, don’t be frightened by the brightness of my halo, it’s alright children.
Anywho, yesterday (yes, I know, I know… technically I am posting this on Sunday night EDT, but remember, it’s Monday for some of us Mumpers already. Think diversity, children, diversity!), one of the hymns we sang was All Things Bright And Beautiful. Now, I lurve this hymn. However, thanks to Monty Python and especially Eric Idle, my voice is singin’ “All things bright and beautiful. All creatures great and small. All things wise and wonderful. The Lord God made them all". However, my brain is singin’ this…
All Things Dull and Ugly.
I’ve included the words for those of you who may feel compelled to sing along. I mean, hey, who doesn’t like a good Monty Python singalong, right?
All Things Dull and Ugly
*All things dull and ugly,
All creatures short and squat,
All things rude and nasty,
The Lord God made the lot.
Each little snake that poisons,
Each little wasp that stings,
He made their brutish venom.
He made their horrid wings.
All things sick and cancerous,
All evil great and small,
All things foul and dangerous,
The Lord God made them all.
Each nasty little hornet,
Each beastly little squid–
Who made the spikey urchin?
Who made the sharks? He did!
All things scabbed and ulcerous,
All pox both great and small,
Putrid, foul and gangrenous,
The Lord God made them all.
Amen.*
BTW, feel free to add your favorite Monty Python song. They are numerous. Feel free to sing away and share.
Now that I’ve given y’all an earworm for the day I feel my work here is done.
Well, my work is almost done. There is one momentous Mumper occasion today. Today is the birthday of our very own and much loved Taters. Thus, da bear must sing!
