Lyrics
Ploffskin: Allow us to introduce ourselves humans... We are the Pelicans!

Evil Earl: This is all a dream, this is all a dream, THIS IS ALL A DREAM.

Ploffskin: No human. It is not.

Fury: Who are you guys anyway?

Ploffskin: We just answered that question idiot! We are the PELICANS. I'm Ploffskin. And this is Pluffskin, Plumpskin, Ploshkin and over there are the twins Pelican Jee and Pelican Jill.

Jeremiah: This is still making us confused. We want answers like why are you here, why you want us, your life? We're confused-

Evil Earl: DON'T WORRY JEREMIAH THIS IS A DREAM NOW SNAP-

Ploffskin: Oh this isn't a dream...

Evil Earl: I know I just want to leave because THIS IS FREAKING ME OUT.

Ploffskin: You know what? Fine. We'll tell you since your SO eager to know... You know what to do pelicans!

Fury: Wait what's going on?

Ploffskin: Hit it.

Pelicans: King and Queen of the Pelicans we

No other Birds so grand we see! None but we have feet like fins! With lovely leathery throats and chins! Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee! We think no birds so happy as we! Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill! We think so then, and we thought so still!

Jeremiah: Ok so your happy with your life! That's nice!

Evil Earl: This is still baffling... If you are happy with how you live then what do you want from us?!

Ploshkin: Ugh... His voice is so annoying! Why can't you just shut up and let us be or explain?!

Ploffskin: Patience Ploshkin. Let us answer their questions... It's very simple.

Pelicans: We live on the Nile. The Nile we love. By night we sleep on the cliffs above. By day we fish, and at eve we stand On long bare islands of yellow sand. And when the sun sinks slowly down And the great rock walls grow dark and brown, Where the purple river rolls fast and dim And the ivory Ibis starlike skim Wing to wing we dance around Stamping our feet with a flumpy sound Opening our mouths as Pelicans ought And this is the song we nightly snort

King and Queen of the Pelicans we

No other Birds so grand we see! None but we have feet like fins! With lovely leathery throats and chins! Ploffskin, Pluffskin, Pelican jee! We think no birds so happy as we! Plumpskin, Ploshkin, Pelican jill! We think so then, and we thought so still!
