Once upon a timeWhen the world was just a pancakeFears would ariseThat if you went too far you’d fallBut with the passage of timeIt all became more of a ball*We’re as sure of thatAs we all once were when the world was flatSo I wonder thisAs life billows smoke inside my headThis little game where nothing is sure, ohWhy would you play by the rules?Who did, you did, youWho did, you did, youWhen was it killedThe very last dodo birdAnd was she awareShe was the very last oneSo I wonder thisAs life billows smoke inside my headThis little game where nothing is sure, ohWhy would you play by the rules?Who did, you did, youWho did, you did, youYou say who did, well you did, youIf all the things that you are saying loveWere true enough but stillWhat’s is all the worrying ‘boutWe can work it outWe can work it outOh I wonder thisAs life billows smoke inside my headThis little game where nothing is sureWhy would you play by the rules?Who did, you did, youWho did, you did, you
