I was born ten thousand years ago
There's nothing in this world that I don't know
I saw Peter, Paul and Moses playing ring around the roses
and i'll whip the man who said it isn't so
A pansy who lived in *Cartoom*
took a lesbian up to his room
they argued all night, about who had the right
to do what and with which and to whom
I was born ten thousand years ago
There's nothing in this world that I don't know
I saw Peter, Paul and Moses playing ring around the roses
and i'll whip the man who said it isn't so
There was this young fellow called Dirken
who was always jerkin' his gherkin
his mama said 'Dirken, stop jerkin' yer gherkin'
'Yer gherkin's fer ferkin not jerkin'!
I was born ten thousand years ago
There's nothing in this world that I don't know
I saw Peter, Paul and Moses playing ring around the roses
and i'll whip the man who said it isn't so
A plumber who lived in Dundee
was plumbing a lass by the sea
and as he was plumbing she said 'someone's coming'
said the plumber, still plumbing, 'it's me'
I was born ten thousand years ago
There's nothing in this world that I don't know
I saw Peter, Paul and Moses playing ring around the roses
and i'll whip the man who said it isn't so
There was this young lady from Norway
who hung by her toes from the doorway
she said to her young man 'get off the divan'
I think i've discovered one more way
I was born ten thousand years ago
There's nothing in this world that I don't know
I saw Peter, Paul and Moses playing ring around the roses
and i'll whip the man who said it isn't so
