The Story: Don't eat the fruit in the garden, Eden,, It wasn't in God's natural plan., You were only a rib,, And look at what you did,, To Adam, the father of Man.
The Story: You smell like goat, I'll see you in hell
For anyone not familiar with Tove Jansson's "Moomintroll" books, the Hemulens were usually serious, bordering on gloomy, creatures, as I recall, and certainly not given to expressing themselves through the medium of dance; but at the age of 8 or thereabouts, this was the only word that seemed to fit!

Yes, I did make that connection later in life. Didn't really have sufficient geographical knowledge at the time, though :-)
