The Dirty Worm

Since no one really seems to care about here, i'll simply put up whatever i want. and this falls into the smile category anyway.

This by the way was presented in person in front of all of impact, in the chapel mind you by Benj (on staff) and Matt Depreist (on EB staff).


(the intro by benj)

In a missions trip there’s a lot of things that can stir within our soul, there’s a lot things that we can come back with. And one of the more emotional ways we thought we could share that is through song. So Matt and I wrote a song about our/my experiences and what we came back with and how that changes things. So, this is our little tune…

(the song)

When Benj came back from the Guatemala dump
He had something inside

His recovery was proceeding he was almost o’er the hump,
But that was just the start of the ride

The Doc’s diagnosis was a deadly parasite,
water-borne now feasting on a man

The look in the doctor’s eye said it all that night,
you’ll be spending 2 weeks on the can

Cryptooooooosporidium
Resident of my gut
Cryptooooooosporidium
Please come out of my butt

The following days were characerized by intense intestinal strife
as the pain it did increase
A once nominal Benj saw revival in his life
as he prayed for it to cease

Time marched on with the Dirty Worm inside
as Benj felt constant pain
But suddenly 1 day he felt a movement in his bowel
and that dirty worm sprayed out like rain

Cryptooooooosporidium
Resident of my gut
Cryptooooooosporidium
Please come out of my butt

(bridge)
Pooping and moaning
farting and groaning
as bananas came out liquefied
Pooping and moaning
farting and groaning
as bananas came out liquefied
as bananas came out liquefied
as bananas came out liquefied

(Everyone!)

Cryptooooooosporidium
Resident of my gut
Cryptooooooosporidium
Please come out of my butt
