you know I do have this theory though I think it is good to be embarrassed and do things that make yourself feel awkward and kind of out of place and stupid sometimes and I think that's healthy I think it's good to do that that's why I went on a I went on a two-year mission for my church because it made me feel embarrassed and awkward I had a lot of doors slam into my face and I think that's healthy one of my favorite parts of it was even before I left before I left they said Steve you get to pick the hymns that the congregation is gonna sing before you leave it was like a little farewell thing and I thought that's cool that's a big responsibility and I didn't want to mess it up so I asked my dad I was like what him should we sing and my dad goes I don't care just don't sing the pirate him and I was like wait what there's a pirate hand we have a pirate him and I've done some research on the pirate him there's the pirate him the lyrics are used across many Christian churches and as far as I know my church is the only one that uses this particular tune the tune is also used by 1950s Disney movie that was about pirates in the ocean and so I go dad please explain to me what is the pirate him and he goes well it goes it goes yeah da da da da and I was like okay that does sound kind of pirate II but keep going any goes ya da da da that's so piratey I was like and start to des wash buckle a little bit I don't know why my pirates are Irish that they are they just feel feels like I don't know why that's how that goes but I don't know how to do a pirate accent it's all Irish sorry if you're in Ireland and you're watching this now you're pirates are you over there already how do you fix that I know a nice Irish guy I don't know how to fix it I'm part Irish whatever okay I didn't recognize the song yet right yeah odd that I was like I don't recognize it yet and I was like dad please sing it and he's like he didn't want to but he did and he goes well I'm gonna sing it the right way with the pirate accent so my dad sings he goes okay this is the song who's on the Lord say who now is the tiny show as a pirate in we asked Infernus leave fearlessly like they're like running the Jolly Roger up like are you on the large side perilously who's insane and then it doubles down on the pirate-themed it goes at that point sea spray is hitting you in the face yet out of that out of my favorite part who's on the Lord's side [Music] [Applause] more pirate than that does it [Applause] and the whole congregation sings that line everybody goes who you have grandma's next to you going we say that you look up at the top for direction and it goes sing pirate Li make sense they apparently are you on the large side the Lord the Lord the Lord the large side he's on the starboard side he's walking on the water you'll see him [Applause] Jesus take the sound of course we saying that when I left I was like dad I'm shoving off we got so excited hey did you know that Drybar comedy has their own app now download it right now and you can watch my whole special
