When the World Was Flat

From this cave I travel through the years See the Roman chariots the legions with spears The sailing ships are carrying wine and cheese History's everywhere I sail the seven seas Show me this and show me that Take me back to when the world was flat I long for simpler times Show me this and show me that Take me back to when the world was flat I long for simpler times Sitting out here under the coolabah tree It's time for coffee and laughter aplenty Into the distance I ponder the years Looking down I scratch Oscar those furry little ears Show me this and show me that Take me back to when the world was flat I long for simpler times Show me this and show me that Take me back to when the world was flat I long for simpler times There's laws against this and laws against that I long for simpler times with no caveat I've had no luck in my habitat Please take me back to when the world was flat Show me this and show me that Take me back to when the world was flat along for simpler times Show me this and show me that Take me back to when the world was flat along for simpler times Sitting out here under the red gum tree Savour my coffee I'd like to be free To travel the distance and ponder the years Take Oscar with me those furry little ears But something's gone funny I'm looking through tears I take a deep breath I feel pain I taste fear Another breath and now there's ringing in my ears Friends please please please please come on over here Show me this and show me that Take me back to when the world was flat I long for simpler times Show me this and show me that Take me back to when the world was flat I long for simpler times I long for simpler times I long for simpler times
