    Direct Quote From Mr. Palin

    "Every sperm is sacred.

    Every sperm is great.

    If a sperm is wasted,

    God gets quite irate.

    Let the heathen spill theirs

    On the dusty ground.

    God shall make them pay for

    Each sperm that can't be found.

    Every sperm is wanted.

    Every sperm is good.

    Every sperm is needed

    In your neighbourhood.

    Hindu, Taoist, Mormon,

    Spill theirs just anywhere,

    But God loves those who treat their

    Semen with more care.

    Every sperm is sacred.

    Every sperm is good.

    Every sperm is needed

    In your neighbourhood!

    Every sperm is useful.

    Every sperm is fine.

    God needs everybody's.

    Mine! And mine! And mine!

    Let the Pagan spill theirs

    O'er mountain, hill, and plain.

    God shall strike them down for

    Each sperm that's spilt in vain.

    Every sperm is sacred.

    Every sperm is great.

    If a sperm is wasted,

    God gets quite iraaaaate!"

    Look it up yourself if you don't believe me, these are Palin's exact words.
