Amish Paradise by Weird Al Yankovic

As I (1)________ through the (2)____________ where I harvest my grain
I take a (3)________ at my wife and realize she's very plain
But that's just perfect for an Amish like me
You know I shun fancy (4)____________ like electricity

At (5)________ in the mornin' I'm milking cows
Jedediah feeds the chickens and Jacob plows, fool
And I've been milking and plowing so long that
Even Ezekial thinks that my (6)________ is gone

I'm a man of the land, I'm (7)________ discipline
Got a Bible in my (8)________ and a (9)__________ on my chin
But if I finish all of my chores, and you finish thine
Then tonight we're going to party like it's 1699

We've been spending most our lives living in an Amish paradise
I churn butter once or twice, living in an Amish paradise
It's hard work and sacrifice, living in an Amish paradise
We sell quilts at discount price, living in an Amish paradise

A (10)__________ boy kicked me in the butt last week
I (11)________ smiled at him, and I turned the other cheek
I really don't care, in fact I wish him well
'Cause I'll be laughin' my head off when he's burnin' in hell

But I ain't never punched a tourist even if he deserved it
An Amish with a 'tude, you know that's unheard of
I (12)__________ wear buttons, but I got a cool hat
And my homies (13)__________ I really look good in black, fool

If you come to visit, you'll be bored to tears
We haven't even (14)________ the phone bill in 300 years
But we ain't (15)____________ quaint, so please don't point and stare
We're just (16)______________________________ impaired

There's no phone, no lights, no motorcars, not a single luxury
Like Robinson Crusoe, it's as primitive as can be

We've been spending (17)________ our (18)__________ living in an Amish paradise
We're just plain and (19)____________ guys, living in an Amish paradise
There's no time for sin and vice, living in an Amish paradise
We don't fight, we all play nice, living in an Amish paradise

Hitchin' up the buggy, churnin' lots of butter
Raised a barn on Monday, soon I'll raise a nutter
Think you're really righteous? Think you're (20)________ in heart?
Well, I know, I'm a (21)______________ times as (22)____________ as thou art

I'm the pioust guy the little Amletts (23)________ to be like
On my knees day and night scoring points for the afterlife
So don't be vain, and don't be whiney
Or else my brother might (24)________ to get medieval on your hiney

We've been spending most our lives (25)____________ in an Amish paradise
We're all crazy Mennonites, living in an Amish paradise
There's no cops or traffic lights, living in an Amish paradise
But you'd probably think it bites, (26)____________ in an Amish paradise
Yeah
