Help me settle a bet - is it ‘Mork mork mork’ or ‘Bork bork bork’?

I’m going with bork bork bork.

That ain’t what he’s asking, you dork! 😛 A quick Google search of “Yorn desh born” (don’t ask me how I remember that) gives you six pages of examples of the Swedish Chef’s theme song:

> [@](#):
>
> Yorn desh born, der ritt de gitt der gue, Orn desh, dee born desh, de umn **bork! bork! bork!**

So whadja win?
