"Jonah Was A Prophet"


When I was a boy I went to church back home in Arizona
And that is where I heard the tale of a man whose name was Jonah
now Jonah was a prophet, but that's not why he's remembered
They tell the tale, Cause in a whale he nearly was dismembered!

CHORUS
Jonah was a prophet
oo-ooh!
but he really never got it
sad but true!
and if you watch it you can spot it
a-doodley-doo!
he did not get the point!

Compassion and mercy from me to you and you to me
exactly what god wants to see and yes that is the point!

CHORUS

Now Jonah Set Sail On A Pirate ship
In a dreadful gale
Got eaten up by a giant whale
But then its not to be said
You think he would learn alot
From being saved from an awful spot
But the second chance that he had got
He didn't want to be spread
now poor old Jonah
and now he's all alone-ah
gotta use a megaphone-ah
to get it through to his head-HEY!

CHORUS

now during your life you prob'ly don't ride on a camel
and you prob'ly won't wake up inside a large aquatic mammal
but all the same like Jonah there is something you can do
everyone deserves to get a second chance from you!

Compassion and mercy from me to you and you to me
Exactly what god wants to see and yes that is the point!

REPEAT CHORUSX2

"Viking Medley"

"We're Vikings!"

We're Vikings, what do you know, the terrors of the sea
We're Vikings, where ever we go, pillaging happily
We're Vikings, let there be no ambuiguity
Cause who doesn't like a pile of loot?
Some gold, some jewels, and a shiny suit?
And a giant screen TV to boot?
A Viking's life for me!
Yo ho!

We're Vikings, what do you know, the terrors of the sea
We're Vikings, where ever they go, pillaging happily
We're Vikings, let there be no ambuiguity
Cause who doesn't like a pile of loot?
(this is my life as a Viking wife)
Some gold, some jewels, and a shiny suit?
(we have to admit that it's rife with strife)
And a giant screen TV to boot?
(but that's the lot we got, when married we)
The terrors of the sea!
(we married Vikings)
A Viking life for me!

"Look Olaf"

Look, Olaf! There's a fish, with a pretty little circle on the bottom of the
backside of his fin!
Look, Olaf, there's another, and another, and another!
And the little one has got a funny grin!
Look, Olaf, Olaf, Olaf! Way down underneath the water, it's the biggest
fish I think I've ever seen!
It's got blue and purple stripes, orange and yellow markings, and a
dorsal fin that's iridescent green!

Look, Olaf! There's a turtle and he's wearing pink pajamas and he's got
a cowboy hat upon his lid!
Look Olaf, very close, you'll see he's riding on a llama and he's chasing down that herd of giant
squid!
Look Olaf, Olaf, Olaf, Olaf!
Olaf, Olaf, Olaf, Olaf!
There's a hippo dancing with a bear
Look, Olaf, there's an ostrich
There's a mermaid
There's a bunny!
Please, Olaf, look anywhere but ---

Olaf: I don't see anything . . . what?

--- but there.

"Our Share"

Thank you, thank you, our new friends, you saved us from the sea
Rest assured that we intend to share proficiently

We used to care
About our share
Of gold, so rare
And big TV's
But when we share, we get out share of friends

Doo-doo-dee-doo-doo . . .

So what's the use?
A golden goose
Is no excuse
For being mean
When we share we get our share of friends

"In The Belly Of The Whale"


Up to my ears
In bitter tears.
Can't believe I've sunk this low
As I walk the plankton
Inner sanctum.
Got outta Dodge,
Sailed on a bon-less
Bon voyage.
You said North,
I headed South.
Tossed overboard.
Good Lord, that's a really large mouth...

I'm sleeping with fishes here,
In the belly of the whale.
I'm highly nutritious here,
In the belly of the whale.
Bad food, lousy atmosphere.
I don't wanna bellyache.
How long is this gonna take?

Woke up this morning kinda blue,
Thinking through that age-old question:
How to exit a whale's digestion?
It might behoove me to be heaved.
Head out like a human comet.
Hmmm... I wonder what rhymes with comet.

I'm sleeping with fishes here,
In the belly of the whale.
I'm highly nutritious here,
In the belly of the whale.
I'm ready to reappear.
I don't wanna bellyache.
Lord, how long's this gonna take?

End times, they come rolling around.
Enzymes, they come breaking us down to the core.
The good Lord grants we all get a second chance.

I'm one of the dishes here,
In the belly of the whale.
They say I'm delicious here,
In the belly of the whale.
Lord, please make him chuck it all.
It's a gut call
In the belly of the whale.

I'm in the belly of the whale.
In the belly of the whale.
I'm in the belly.
In the belly of the whale.
I'm in the belly of the whale.
In the belly of the whale.
I'm in the belly...

In the belly of the whale
In an underwater jail
It's a tight squeeze.
It's a-gettin' to me,
But it's roomier
Than the tail.
Hey, sailor,
Got my flow free
Like a salmon to the sea
From the L.A. Symphony.
I'm a paddleboat
Paddlin' in their wake,
A fake free-styler,
But my unemployment pays.
I'm avoiding cliches
Like "whale of a tale" say
Or "you can't keep
A good man down,"
'Cause you can
And I've been there, man.
But I've been expectorated.
I'm elated!
I'm free like Willie!
Happy Day!
Oops,
That's a bit of a cliche.

In the belly...

"Hope's Song"


There's a story that started on Christmas
When a baby was born in the night
And those who came far, who followed the star
Were seeing a heavenly sight ...
a heavenly sight.

Well the years hurried by, and the boy, now a man
Could make the blind see with a touch of his hand
He was born to be King -- he was Rabbi and Priest
But the best that he had, he gave to the least ...
He gave to the least.

He was born and he died, almost 2,000 years ago
He laughed and he cried, he felt all the fears we know
But what does it matter? A story so strange ...
Even if it is true, what does it change?
What does it change?

Well he spoke like a prophet -- like no one they'd heard
This simple young carpenter -- crowds hung on every word
He hated injustice -- He taught what is right
He said “I'm the way, and the truth, and the light.”

His friends soon believed that truly he was the one.
The Savior, Messiah, God's one and only son.
But others, they doubted, they did not agree
So they took him, they tried him,
He died on a tree ...
He died on a tree.

God has made a way
for all who mourn and grieve
Death will never be the end
if you just believe.

There is nothing left to fear
nothing Heaven knows
For he died for us to give us life
and to give us hope He rose
He died for us to give us life
And to give us hope He rose.

"Pizza Angel"

Intro: Got the munchies on that fateful night. So I phoned in a pizza for delivery. But I had a feeling that something wasn't right cause I waited for hours.... no pizza.

Verse 1 I set he table with a paper plat. How would I know that it'd be late? I've waited so long, where could it be. Had a thirty minute guarantee.

Chorus: Pizza Angel pleases come to me. Tomato sauce and cheese so gooey. Pizza Angel I'm on my knees. You're my number one pie from Sicily.

Verse 2: Did it get lost? Did they just forget? should I have ordered on the internet? Ready for dinner Now I'm not so sure. I think my soda's room temperature.

Chorus; Pizza Angel please come to me.(come to me) Tomato sauce and cheese so gooey. Pizza Angel I'm on my knees (on my knees) And don't forget to add my favorite
anchovies.

Bridge: I was concerned for my delivery. Eight little slices of heaven for me. Can't stop thinking it will make me smile. When I taste me first Chicago style. Goin'
crazy while I pase the floor. And then my heart skips when I heard the door.

Talking: I opened the door in expectations but it was the saddest sight I ever saw. I could still smell the sweet aroma of deep dish goodness. But the box was empty. "Uh your house number was broken so I couldn't find you. I was getting kind of hungry so i uh ate your pizza. Sorry about that. You don't need to tip me or anything."

Chorus: Pizza Angel please come to me (come to me) Tomato sauce and cheese so gooey. Pizza Angel I'm on my knees (on my knees) You'll live forever in my memory. Pizza Angel please come to me (come to me) Tomato sauce and cheese so gooey. Pizza Angel I'm on my knees (on my knees) I will miss you for eternity.

"The Gated Community"


Narrator: And now it's time for Silly Songs with Larry, the part of the show where Larry comes out and sings a Silly Song.


Some off-screen singer: There once was a boy
Who lived in a house
And the house sat under a tree
By the tree ran a fence that stretched far and wide
Round the gated community

Larry: Can I have my ball?
Can you get my ball?
I kicked it into the tree
And my ball bounced up
And my ball dropped in
To the Gated Community

Community folk: Oh! The Gated Community
Is where we like to be
Everything's so lovely
Oh, our hearts are filled with glee
And when you come to visit
You can stand outside and see
What a lovely bunch we are
In our gated unity!

We think you will agree
Is pleasantly devoid
Of unsightly stray debris

In comfy custody

"The Yodeling Veternarian Of The Alps"


Quartet:
"There lived a man so long ago, his memory's but faint
Was not admired (did not inspire) like president or saint
But people came from far and near with their afflicted pets
For a special cure (they knew for sure) wouldn't come from other vets
Woah..."

Doctor Larry:
"This is a song for your poor, sick penguin
He's got a fever and his toes are blue
But if I sing to your poor, sick penguin
He will feel better in a day or two
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hoo
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-lee-eee-ooo
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hoo
Yada-yada yada-yada yad-eee-ooo"

Nurse Pa:
"He's gone a little loopy, in case you haven't heard
Here's a couple pennicilin for your sickly, arctic bird"

Quartet:
"No skeptic could explain just how, nor could one oft rebut
The wonderous deeds that went on in that little Alpine hut
Some would stand in silence while some just scratched their scalps
For the curious ways of the Yodeling Veternarian of the Alps
Woah..."

Pa:
"Good news on the penguin, doc! He's up and kickin'!"

Larry:
"This is a song for your pregnant kitty
She's looking nauseous and a week past due
But if I sing for your pregnant kitty
She will feel better in a day or two
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hoo
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-lee-eee-ooo
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hoo
Yada-yada yada-yada yad-eee-ooo"

Pa:
"Jump in your car, drive into the city
Buy a jug of milk for your nauseated kitty"

Quartet:
"The practice grew, their profits flew until one fateful day
When the nurse who did assist the doc asked for a raise in pay
The doctor pondered this awhile, sat back and scratched his scalp, then said: 'No way, Jose"
To the nurse of the Yodeling Veternarian of the Alps
Woah..."

Pa:
"Good news on the kitty, doc. She's feelin' great. Six kittens. Named one after you."

Larry:
"This is a song for your bear-trapped teddy
He looks uncomfy, think I'd be too
But if I sing for your bear-trapped teddy
He will beel better in a day or two
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hoo
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-lee-eee-ooo
Yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hee yodel-leh-hoo
Yada-yada yada-yada yad-eee-ooo"

Bear:
"Grooooowlll!"

Pa:
"Oh, yeah. That'll work. He's good."

Larry:
"Yodel-leh-hee! Yodel-leh-hoo! No, wait! This should work! Yodel-leh-hee! Yodel-leh-hoo!

Quartet:
"Now the moral of the story, it's the point we hope we've made
When you go a little loopy better keep your nurse well paid"

Larry:
"Yodel-leh-hee
Yodel-leh-hoo
Yodel-odle-odle-aye-de-aye-de-ooo-ooo-ooo"

Quartet:
"Oh, some would stand in silence while some just scratched their scalps
For the curious ways of the Yodeling Veternarian of the Alps"

Larry:
"Yodel-ooo"
