All Things Dull And Ugly Lyrics

Artist: Monty Python
Album: Monty Python's Contractual Obligation Album

All things dull and ugly,
All creatures short and squat,
All things rude and nasty,
The Lord God made the lot.
Each little snake that poisons,
Each little wasp that stings,
He made their brutish venom.
He made their horrid wings.

All things sick and cancerous,
All evil great and small,
All things foul and dangerous,
The Lord God made them all.

Each nasty little hornet,
Each beastly little squid--
Who made the spikey urchin?
Who made the sharks? He did!

All things scabbed and ulcerous,
All pox both great and small,
Putrid, foul and gangrenous,
The Lord God made them all.

Amen.

by Georgia on 11/25/2008 10:42am IS this a blues song
by SHAZZA on 11/26/2008 2:27am This is bloody Hilarious
by Jane on 1/13/2009 6:11pm A logical extension from All Things Bright and Beautiful - god has responsibility for all cruel and nasty things in nature as well as the good. If you assume that god exists, that is.
by Esme on 3/12/2009 2:46pm This is very good and and think that this is so funny.Buts it's true is'nt it

by ashef on 5/19/2011 11:40am stunner 112: in the words of The Doctor, I rather love you. And Kudos to Jane for the intellctual interpretation. Basically if someone believes in a god they can't just praise the good stuff, but praise the bad stuff. Maybe there's a reason that they focus on the good stuff only, one wouldn't want to lose faith in something they've had ingrained.
by A Nobody pointing to Somebody on 2/27/2012 1:16pm I get why this is funny - it is quite witty after all. It saddens me though that it only takes a Monty Python song to persuade some that God, if he exists, is the author of evil and suffering. Could it be that all of the most beautiful and wonderful things in creation are a remnant of what once was, and what is corrupt and awry is the handiwork of those who thought they knew better than their Creator? I make choices daily (regretfully) that contribute toward the chaos of our world... am I alone in this? Or is my life a microcosm of humanity's condition? Apologize for the heavy comments in the midst of the lighthearted responses above... just needed to share.
by Griff on 6/8/2012 7:41am Its point is simply that it's an answer to theists, usually Christians, who come out with the cliche, when they refer to one of the many beautiful things in nature," How can anyone believe that all this happened by accident? Surely something as wonderful as this must have a creator." Well, if you like, I say,just like the ingenuity that goes into, for example, the disease rabies, or the tapeworm. I looked this up so I can learn the words. Thank you for uploading it.
by Ponderings on 9/16/2012 3:12pm I response to the comment above "and what is corrupt and awry is the handiwork of those who thought they knew better than their Creator? I make choices daily (regretfully) that contribute toward the chaos of our world... am I alone in this? Or is my life a microcosm of humanity's condition?" Nasty things evolved millions, if not billions of years before humans came along. The universe is chaotic and meaningless, just accept and get on with your life as best you can.
