Monk With Me
[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]
Tell me, Mister Johan Blrgblrgblrg
Have you ever thought about working for the church?

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

I did once, but it seemed pretty boring

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

No, Johan Bababa, monking is power!

[SUNG]

Monk with me!
Come work here, I think you'll like it, we've got a cat

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SUNG]

Aw!

[BUD as MONK, SUNG]

Plus free lunch!
Delicious
Loaves and fishes
Here, taste that
[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Mm!

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SUNG]

I usually eat lamb and stew, maybe I like fish too?

[BUD as MONK, SUNG]

[LAUGHS]

Monk with me!
The clothes here, it's all robes here
Don't that feel soft?

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Oh!

[BUD as MONK, SUNG]

It's real silk!
From China, there's nothing finer
Now take it off
[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

But I want it!

[BUD as MONK, SUNG]

Then monk, with me, my friend
Yeah!
We're monking for God now
Monk, with me, my friend!

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SUNG]

I'm tempted by his monk lifestyle
But I want something more worthwhile
A world where everyone can read
Can I still do that, Monk?

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

It's better if the world can't read
God is what the people need
That god could be us, or we
Oh, Gutenborg, monk with-

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]
No!
Monk, don't you see?
We're different. You believe in God, and I believe in stuff
And God and stuff don't mix
It's like bugs, and beautiful skin
Plus let's face it man, you're a terrible monk

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

Choose your words very carefully, Johan Papapa

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Words!
Words, yes, I almost forgot

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

What?

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Like the words in this bible!

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

No!

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Words are why I came here!

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SUNG]

I believe in my words, I believe in my press, I believe in a reading Germany
Now you want me to Monk, and throw that away
I think it's time to go

[BUD as MONK, SUNG] [DOUG as GUTENBERG, SUNG]

Do not tell me My answer monk is

[BOTH, SUNG]

No!

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN] [DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Doors lock! [Huh!]
Windows close! [Ah!]

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

You're not going anywhere, Babababababa!

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Yes I am, and I'm taking this big bible with me
Oh, it feels like goodness!
The only thing better than this feeling would be mass-producing this feeling

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

Gimme that bible!

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Ah!

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

You better get your mind off of words, Johan Kakaka
Why, don't you want to go to heaven?

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Heaven?

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

Yeah, heaven. Where do you think people go when they die?

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

I don't know, I guess most people turn into dirt
But some people turn into statues

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

Statues?

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Yes, and I want my statue to be me, riding a dragon, and nursing a baby!

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

Oh, Johan Bababa, there are no statues in heaven

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Then I don't wanna go there!

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

What? But everybody wants to go to heaven
That's what gives me my power

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SUNG]

Oh, Monk, you cannot understand
The world has changed for human man

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

Aah!

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SUNG]

Thinking, reading, that's the plan
Your monk ways are old news
And I will never monk with-

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

Hey, Monk

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

(HISSES)

[DOUG as GUTENBERG, SPOKEN]

I'm taking this bible
But, Monk
I hope we can be friends

[music]

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

Friends?

Ridiculous

Impossible!

The Bible says a monk shall not have friends
Then again, I wouldn't mind having a buddy I could talk to every now and then
We'd crack open a little communion wine, watch a joust, maybe bait a bear!

[LAUGHS]

I'd love to bait a bear!
But, aw heck, for that to happen, the whole world would have to change
Then again, what if it did- change?

[BUD as MONK, SUNG]

A world with no more monking
No heaven, and no hell
Where I don't work for Satan
How I hate that sulfur smell!
If changes are coming like Johan says, Lord, could I change as well?
I'd have no power but I could be good...

[BUD as MONK, SPOKEN]

No!
What am I saying?
God is my enemy
And being good is the exact opposite of what I want

[BUD as MONK, SUNG]

There is no good in me
There's haunted German wood in me!
Aah!
And Gutenberg is gonna see
The world will monk with me!
