The Earth was flat, if you went too far, you fall off Now the Earth is round, if the shape change again, everybody start laugh The average man can't of most of the things that he chooses to speak of And won't research and find out the root of the truth that you seek of Scholars in universities and claim that they're smart and cunning Tell them find a cure when we sneeze and that's their nose start running And the rich get up when them get cut Wanna heal broken bones in the bush with the wet mud Can you read signs? Can you stars? Can you make Can you fight war? Can you milk cows even though you cars? Can you survive against all odds
