I Was Born 10,000 Years Ago

I Was Born 10,000 Years Ago

I was born ten thousand years ago

And there ain’t nothing in this world I don’t know

I saw Peter, Paul & Moses

Playin’ ring around the roses

And I’ll whip the guy who says it isn’t so

Chorus:

It’s a lie, It’s a Lir

Ship ahoy, ship ahey, ship a hi-yi-yi

I saiied the seven seas in my dirty dungarees

But I never, never ever saw a Mermaid

I saw Satan when he looked the Garden o’er

Saw Adam and Eve driven from the door

And from behind the bushes peeping

I saw the apple they were eating

I know ‘cuz I’m the guy what et the core

I taught Samson how to use his mightly hands

First showed Columbus these happy lands

And for Pharoah’s many kids

I built he Pyramids

And to Sahara carried all the sands

I taught Solomon all his ABC’s

Was the first man to eat limburger cheese

And while sailing in the Bay

With Methusalah one day

I saw his whiskers flappin’ in the breeze

I saw Jonah embark within the whale

And I never thought he’d live to tell the tale

But Jonah was eatin’ garlic

And he gave the whale the colic

So he belched him up and let him out of jail

Now the next verse is about Queen Elizabeth but I’m not going to sing that

verse out of respect for the lady. Instead, I’ve written my own last verse and

ready or not, here it comes:

I was married to Madonna secretly

But that gal was way too much for me

So I went 10,000 miles down unda’

Found some heavy metal thunda

And brought back the band AC/DC

Highway to hell, highway to hell

Dirty deeds done dirt cheap, dirty deeds done dirt cheap

Chorus:

It’s a lie, It’s a Lir

Ship ahoy, ship ahey, ship a hi-yi-yi

I saiied the seven seas in my dirty dungarees

But I never, never ever saw a Mermaid
