of backsliding that has brought the

scarcity upon us uh excuse me smiley

thinks the food shortage has something

to do with me do you not understand that

we can only survive here when we're in

harmony so you and your foreign friends

lead us into your easy ways you offend

the great gwin you invite him to

withhold his Bounty he rules the seasons

he giveth and he can take it away wait a

minute Happy Feet can't cause a famine

yeah If thy kind of pagan display did

not cause it then what did I think it

comes from outside Way Beyond the ice

there are things out there things we

don't understand Mysteries mindboggling

Mysteries Mystic beings yeah aliens he's

mad no aliens I hear they're smart he's

insane they might be smarter than all of

much right to be here as any of these

so-called friends your peculiar thoughts

your strange ways if we are devout

sincere and our praise the fish will

return they will but Paul listen boy I

was a backslider myself I was careless

and now we're paying the price what's

this got to do with Mumble that's why he

is the way he is but there's nothing

heart and repent but it just doesn't
