The Land of Gorch
The Land of Gorch is a recurring skit in season one of Saturday Night Live. This segment featured Jim Henson's Muppets. Prior to Sesame Street, Henson had initially created puppetry work for a more adult audience, including his show Sam and Friends. His characters were regular appearances on the late-night-comedy scene including The Ed Sullivan Show. After Sesame Street, Henson feared that he would become typecast into working on children's television series. His talent agent Bernie Brillstein, who represented Gilda Radner, Dan Aykroyd, and John Belushi, helped him transition to Saturday Night Live.
The premise of The Land of Gorch featured Muppet characters in a far-away locale, who were members of a royal family. They behaved boorishly, with frequent references to drug abuse, sexual innuendo, and intake of alcohol. Characters included King Ploobis and Queen Peutra and children, and servants Scred and Vazh. These characters often consulted their oracle Mighty Favog for advice.

The Land
by: BathoryThis land is mine to the end of time
none it shall claim or conquer
the mountains high: the endless sky
the forests and the sea
Oh land rejoice: your son has sailed
beyond the seas: adventurous trail
now heading north: to Asa Bay
my place of birth: home of the brave
A man he may wither away
or die in battle with sword in hand
but the river will flow and the wind will blow
forever across my northern land
This land is mine to the end of time
none it shall claim or conquer
the mountains high: the endless sky
the forests and the sea
Oh fatherland: oh Northstar high
two hundred days and night have I
been away from you my hearts most dear
returning home: great wealth to share
Work those oars: the wind is still
no southern breeze our sail to fill
the dusk is here and our bay is far
the Dragon soon to sweep the night
so work these oars an Sorsemen: brother's row
The land where deep in heavyturf the bones and crushed skulls testify
the violent times and troubled days when land was claimed
and paid for in blood and human lives
The land where gold of star will glow in silvery water
and on black wings high the ravens soar above
