- In the Garden of Eden, honey,
- Don't you know that I love you?
- In the Garden of Eden, baby,
- Don't you know that I'll always be true?
- [Bart laughs evilly]
- [Marge giggles and then shushes Homer]
- [Helen Feesh plays the lengthy instrumental interlude until the congregation comes back in]
- Oh won't you come with me-ee-ee,
- And take my ha-a-and?
- Oh, won't you come with me-ee-ee,
- Reverend Lovejoy:
- Wait a minute, this sounds like rock and/or roll!
- And walk this land?
- [Helen Feesh plays the rest of the 17-minute song and then faints, collapsing on the keyboards]
