Once upon a time

When the world was just a pancake

Fears would arise

That if you went too far, you'd fall



But with the

Passage of time

It all became more of a ball

We're as sure of that

As we all once were when the world was flat



So I wonder this

As life billows smoke inside my head

This little game

Where nothing is sure (oh)



Why would you play by the rules?

Who did, you did, you

Who did, you did, you



When was it killed

The very last dodo bird

And was she aware

She was the very last one



So I wonder this

As life billows smoke inside my head

This little game

Where nothing is sure (oh)



Why would you play by the rules?

Who did, you did, you

Who did, you did, you

You say who did, you did, you



If all the things that you are saying now

Were true enough but still what is all the worrying about

We can work it out

We can work it out

Oh I wonder this

As life billows smoke inside my head

This little game

Where nothing is sure (oh)



Why would you play by the rules?

Who did, you did, you

Who did, you did, you

You say who did, you did, you
