Verse 1	So the whole world had one language, and the words were pretty much the same.
Verse 2	And when some guys were coming from the East they found this valley in some place called Shinar and they sorta settled there.
Verse 3	So they were all like, "C'mon, let's mold some bricks and burn 'em." So then they pretty much used bricks for stone and this asphalt stuff instead of mortar.
Verse 4	They were like, "C'mon, whaddya say we build ourselves a city, and a tower-thingy with a really high top? Let's make a name for ourselves so we won't, you know, get scattered all over the place."
Verse 5	So God came down to see the city and the tower these guys built.
Verse 6	And he was like, "They're a single people, they all speak the same language, and look what they go do first! You know, they'll be able to do anything now!
Verse 7	C'mon, let's go down there and confuse 'em so they can't understand a word they're saying."
Verse 8	So from there God pretty much scattered everyone all over the place, and they gave up on the whole tower thing.
Verse 9	So he named it Babel because that's where he screwed up the world's language. You know, it was from there that he scattered everyone all over the place.
