I went to bed a regular man.
The next morning was when it began,
Â
Za konda moncha too whokonka jihig;
the gift of tongues for a message big,
Â
framwhalerifle se endlumendity;
and it also comes in quite handy
Â
therellfull lotcha quonzupalapy;
when you've no rhyming dictionary.
Â
Dela quon kwee otto bella hoot thein;
means get ready for the Second Comin'.
Â
Haminguya yang a yang heleogadden;
The time is nigh, better get repentin'.
Â
Plen booomble onna wonna gie;
Imbued with the spirit of love am I.
Â
Nookitoocher fem blimbinoggin ky;
Got my snake and I'm a lucky guy.
Â
Heckno endowlin comfumferificiously;
You might wonder why a guy like me
Â
alla hoo yum yum nimbliolosoblivity;
would be chosen for such exceptionality.
Â
Sanctum ner a what do cumunnared;
with eloquence well was I prepared
Â
fregulomubgotha sed quiza blaired;
and now I'm this word smith squared.
Â
Nikwha hobli obben hezekiel zebin;
Better get on over to the Lord a pleasin'.
Â
Beebee boomba trulowna eelabujian;
This gift of tongues must have a reason.

Dr. John.
It's also a bit of a good natured poke at religion. It was inspired out of my for some reason having gotten into the habbit of "speaking in tongues" around the house. "I have the gift," I said.
I am hoping that we will have a serious discussion about the Gift of Tongues. There are many that understand this "gift", and there are also many others that don't --
I hope my good natured take on the gift of tongues and of snake charming didn't cause offense.
My personal take on religion is it only ever can point in the general direction of an absolute reality. Nobody can stake a claim on it or plant the king's flag on it.
