The Lyrics

Another from the back catalogue of unreleased work. Original song on YouTube

I got summoned to sail but I’m sure afraid
I’m dispatched on journey – closed my eyes and prayed
Ship’s gonna fall on down
And leave me splat
Because I’m told of the lore - that
The world is flat

Well, it's archaic kind of thinking, sure – but the rim
Dude, it’s gonna tip me over in…to ob-liv-ee-in!
Some think the land is round (that confounds)
I think that’s crap (I think that’s unsound – I laugh at that)
Because you’ll find that for sure - that
The world is flat

Yes, it makes me scream
‘Cos I'm the one who’s on this tub
But it’s obscene:
Their curvature way - I laugh in their face

It is blessing truly, that there’s plenty of rain
I know water’s pouring, off the end like a drain
That Galileo’s wrong! (Yep, he’s wrong!)
Completely flat (God left silly kind of booby trap!)
Because I must re-assure - that
The world is flat – No?

The world is flat
The world is flat
The world is flat
And that is that
The world is flat

Yeah, had not forseen
Horizon can’t be got rid of!
But church machine:
The Vatican’s say: dispute’s not my place

So, seafarers: gloomy, ‘cos landlubbers malign
I can't help but feeling my own peril’s consigned
Ship’s gonna fall on down (fall on down)
And leave me splat (gonna fall on down and that is that)
Because I’m told of the lore - that
The world is flat
