All Things Dull and Ugly

anonyme


Text anonymous (≤1981). Tune : « All Things Bright and Beautiful ».


1
All things dull and ugly
All creatures short and squat
All things rude and nasty
The Lord God made the lot.
 
2
Each little snake that poisons
Each little wasp that stings
He made their brutish venom
He made their horrid wings.
 
3
All things sick and cancerous
All evil great and small
All things foul and dangerous
The Lord God made them all.
 
4
Each nasty little hornet
Each beastly little squid
Who made the spikey urchin,
Who made the sharks ? He did.
 
5
All things scabbed and ulcerous
All pox both great and small
Putrid, foul and gangrenous,
The Lord God made them all.
 
Amen
