You all know the Bible

Is made of Testaments Old and New

You've been told it's just those two parts

Or only one, if you're a Jew

But what if I were to tell you

There's a fresh third part out there?

Which was found by a hip, new prophet

Who had a little

Donny Osmond flair

Have you heard of the all-American Prophet?

The blonde-haired, blue-eyed voice of God

He didn't come from the Middle East

Like those other holy men

No, God's favorite prophet was All-American

I'm gonna take you back to Biblical times 1823

An American man named Joe livin' on a farm in the holy land of Rochester, New York

You mean the Mormon prophet Joseph Smith?

That's right, that young man spoke to God

He spoke to God?

And God said, "Joe, people really need to know

That the Bible isn't two parts

There's a Part Three to the Bible, Joe

And I, God, have anointed you

To dig up this Part Three that is buried by the tree

On the hill in your backyard"

Wow, God says go to your backyard and start digging, that makes perfect sense

Joseph Smith went up to that hill

And dug where he was told

And deep in the ground, Joseph found

Shining plates of gold

What are these golden plates?

Who buried them here, and why?

Then appeared an angel

His name was Moroni

I am Moroni

The All-American Angel (All-American)

My people lived here long, long ago

This is the history of my race

Please read the words within

We were Jews, who met with Christ but we were All-American

But don't let anybody see these plates except for you

They are only for you to see

Even if people ask you to show the plates to them, don't

Just copy them on to normal paper

Even though this might make them question if the plates are real or not

This is sort of what God is going for

Joseph took the plates home and wrote down what he found inside

He turned those plates into a book

Then rushed into town and cried

"Hey, God spoke to me and gave me

This blessed ancient tome

He hath commanded me to publish it

And stick it in every home"

Wow! So the Bible is really a trilogy?

And the Book of Mormon is Return of the Jedi?

Now, many people didn't believe the Prophet Joseph Smith

They thought he'd made up this Part Three that was buried by a tree, on the hill in his backyard

This is no lie; I speak to God all the time

And he told me to head west

So I'll take my Part Three, from the hill with the tree

Feel free if you'd like to come along with me

To the promised land

Paradise, on the West coast

Nothing but fruit and fields, as far as the eye can see

Have you heard of the All-American prophet?

He found a brand new book about Jesus Christ

We're following him to paradise

We call ourselves Mormons

And our new religion is All-American

Wow! How much does it cost!?

The Mormons kept on searching for that place to settle down

But every time they thought they'd found it

They got kicked out of town

And even though people wanted to see the golden plates

Joseph never showed 'em

I've got maggots in my scrotum

Now comes the part of our story

That gets a little bit sad

On the way to the promised land

Mormons made people mad

Joseph was shot by an angry mob

And knew he'd soon be done

You must lead the people now

My good friend, Brigham Young

Oh, God, why are You letting me die?

Without having me show people the plates?

They'll have no proof I was telling the truth or not

They'll have to believe it just 'cause

Oh, I guess that's kinda what you were going for

The Prophet Joseph Smith died for what he believed in

But his followers, they kept on heading west

And Brigham Young led them to paradise

A sparkling land in Utah they called Salt Lake City

And there the Mormons multiplied

And made big Mormon families

Generation to generation

Until finally they made me

And now it's my job to lead you where those early settlers were led, long ago

Have you heard of the All-American prophet?

The next in line to be the voice of God?

He's gonna do something incredible

And be Joseph Smith again

'Cause Kevin Price, the prophet, is All-American

If you order now, we'll also throw in a set of steak knives
