Lyrics
From God's Brain To Your Mouth
- Bart:
- Hymns here! I got hymns here! Get 'em while they're holy! Fresh from God's brain to your mouth!
- Reverend Lovejoy:
- And now please rise for our opening hymn... Uh, "In the Garden of Eden" by "I. Ron Butterfly?"
In the Garden of Eden
- [Gertie Feesh plays opening riff]
- Congregation:
- In the Garden of Eden, honey,
- Don't you know that I love you?
- In the Garden of Eden, baby,
- Don't you know that I'll always be true?
- [Bart laughs evilly]
- [Marge giggles and then shushes Homer]
- [Gertie Feesh plays the lengthy instrumental interlude until the congregation comes back in]
- Oh won't you come with me-ee-ee,
- And take my ha-a-and?
- Oh, won't you come with me-ee-ee,
- Reverend Lovejoy:
- Wait a minute, this sounds like rock and/or roll!
- And walk this land?
- [Gertie Feesh plays the rest of the 17-minute song until she faints on the keyboards]
- Reverend Lovejoy:
- I know one of you is responsible for this. So repeat after me: If I withhold the truth, may I go straight to hell, where I will eat naught but burning hot coals and drink naught but burning hot cola...
- Kids and Ralph:
- ... where fiery demons will punch me in the back...
- Kids and Bart:
- ...where my soul will be chopped into confetti and strewn upon a parade of murderers and single mothers...
- Kids and Milhouse:
- ...where my tongue will be torn out by ravenous birds...
- [a crow shrieks]
- Milhouse:
- Bart did it! That Bart right there!
- Bart:
- Milhouse!
- Reverent Lovejoy:
- Milhouse, you did the right thing. Bart, come with me for punishment. You too, Snitchy.
- I want you to clean every one of these organ pipes that you have befouled with your "popular music."
