Come gather ‘round people, my story to hear Forget the ol’ bible, the truth is out here What happened in these days of old In the Garden of Eden, you’re about to be told
At first there was nothing much at all The Lord was feeling bored so he created great and small The earth, the grass and trees bearing fruit He looked down from heaven, saw that it was good
Then snake appeared from in between the leaves He promised wisdom and of course woman was deceived First was cursed the devil in disguise Then woman and man were driven out from paradise
You shouldn’t have listened to your wife You’ve eaten from the tree of life No longer you’re allowed to stay You’re cursed and chased away Regret this life that you have spoiled You’ll have to spend your days in toil And by the sweat of your face, you’ve fallen from grace
They looked at one another and tried to hide away They realised their nakedness in an awful way Now man was too shy by far to multiply The Lord felt kinda sorry for this Adam-guy
I do regret some of the things I said I was a bit too hard on you, but I was really mad We might as well forget the spell and shake each other’s hand I’ll try to think of something nice to make amends
Sit back and wait a little while I think we need a drink so I’ll Create some Guinness straight away We’re gonna get drunk today Now fill the earth and spread the news Get on the piss and reproduce Be fruitful and get merrily polluted now and then
So now you’ve heard the word, the truth about the Fall Damn’ you all, fulfil your call, go out and have a ball
Let tonight be fruitful, get merrily polluted Let tonight be fruitful, get merrily polluted Let tonight be fruitful, get merrily polluted Tonight, we’re gonna get merrily polluted tonight
