DOUG: (spoken) Scene 3 The church on the hill The roof is made of dirty thatch In the corner, there is a large Bible And on this wall There’s a velvet painting of Jesus... crying Monk, and evil man who hates God Sings to his henchman, Young Monk
BUD (as Monk): When I was a young monk I tended to my flock I prayed to Jesus, I helped the poor I wore a nice monk smock I did what I should I was always so good
DOUG (as Young Monk): Good
BUD (as Monk): But then I met the devil In a haunted German wood
DOUG (as Young Monk): (spoken) Ugh, that sounds scary!
BUD (as Monk): (spoken) It wasn’t scary It was awesome!
DOUG (as Young Monk): (spoken) Ooh
BUD (as Monk): The devil was a lady He looked just like my mom! He helped me like a baby And like a baby, I sucked my thumb I told the devil I’d do what he-
