Swamp Dogg The World Beyond Lyrics

[Chorus]
I dreamed that I was living in the world beyond
And I was born after they dropped the bomb
I dreamed that I was sitting on my father's knee
And he told me of the world that used to be

[Verse 1]
"Tell me again, how it used to be
Did grass really grow?
And what was a tree?
Did rain really fall from the sky?
What a shame that it all had to die"
Tell me about the automobile
How did it run? And what was a wheel?
Did children stand up all alone?
I think that you're putting me on"

[Chorus]
I dreamed that I was living in the world beyond
And I was born after they dropped the bomb
I dreamed that I was sitting on my father's knee
And he told me of the world that used to be [Verse 2]
"Tell me again, how it used to be
Did birds really fly?
What was TV?
Did concrete cover the land?
And what was a rock and roll band?
Tell me again, what kids used to do?
What was a dog?
And what was a shoe?
Did children look different from me?
That must have been something to see"

[Chorus]
I dreamed that I was living in the world beyond
And I was born after they dropped the bomb
I dreamed that I was sitting on my father's knee
And he told me of the world that used to be

[Verse 3]
"Tell me again, about sunshine and rain
What was a boat?
And what was a train?
Were people as lonely as me?
And did they live in chains such as we?"
