Ian Hunter - When The World Was Round lyrics

Hunter Remember the kids in the playground avoiding the bullies each day Timing your life to the monsters, the monsters that won't go away And you win some, you lose some, you ain't got much choice So you choose one, what have you done? Everybody lies and we're stuck in the middle I think I liked it better when the world was round There's too much information but not enough to go on I think I liked it better when the world was round. Now that we're older and wiser, now we got kids of our own Timing their lives to the monsters but the monsters won't leave them alone You win some, you lose some, you ain't got much choice But it's gotta be done, yeah, it's gotta be done. 'Cause everybody lies and we're stuck in the middle I think I liked it better when the world was round There's too much information but not enough to go on I think I liked it better when the world was round; I don't wanna put you off it, I don't wanna put you off it But I think I liked it better when the world was round And I wish that I could change it, yes I wish that I could change it I think I liked it better when the world was round. Is it my imagination? When I look back through the ages? Is it my imagination? Yeah. You win some, you lose some, you only got two shots So you take one, what have you done? 'Cause everybody lies and we're stuck in the middle I think I liked it better when the world was round There's too much information but not enough to go on I think I liked it better when the world was round And I don't think we deserve this, no I don't think we deserve this I think I liked it better when the world was round Give me a reason to believe in, give me a reason to believe in I think I liked it better when the world was round Maybe we can make it better, maybe we can make it better I think I liked it better when the world was round When the world was round, when the world was round I think I liked it better when the world was round When the world was round, when the world was round
