Deus utilis visionem admonere Petrus,
Thet Greeks Arabes an' Ishmaelites
'Oo foller the teachings of Christ
Is as tidy as th' believin' Israelites
Then later af'er th' passage of duo milleniums
Modern medicina reduced th' rate o' death an' mortisque
An' thar arose millions of young Arabian men
'Oo they named 'Excess Population Growff', right, o' EPG
EPG were th' bloody acronym scientists used fo' them
These young Arabian min had few jobs an' wee money
Th' bloody EPG youths resolved they sh'd fight
One anuvver so post much death them 'oo survived
W'd injoy brass an' jobs an' Bollywood an' life  
So EPG busted into groups wich killed etch uvver,
By th' hundreds an' by the thousan's in mo'tal strife
Two thousan' years post Deum reminded Peter
Thet Arabes 'oo obey Deo is clean
It were as eff'n th' Arabs 'ad fo'gotten
Thet Arabian Christians is clean ter eat
It were as eff'n th' bloomin' wo'ld 'ad fo'gotten,
That Deus destroyed all mankind except Noahum,
On account o' min 'ad filled th' bleedin' terra wiv violence
