Dodo Songtext
von Dave Matthews

Once upon a time
When the world was just a pancake
Fears would arise
That if you went too far, you′d fall

But with the passage of time
It all became more of a ball
We're as sure of that
As we all once were when the world was flat

So I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game
Where nothing is sure, oh-oh

Why would you play by the rules?
Who did? You did, you (who did? You did)
Who did? You did, you

When was it killed?
The very last dodo bird
And was she aware
She was the very last one?


So I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game
Where nothing is sure, oh-oh

Why would you play by the rules? (Who did? You did)
Who did? You did, you (who did? You did, you)
Who did? You did, you (who did?)
You say, "Who did?" Girl you did, you

If all the things that you are saying now
Were true enough, but still, what is all the worrying about?
We can work it out
We can work it

Oh, I wonder this
As life billows smoke inside my head
This little game
Where nothing is sure, oh-oh

Why would you play by the rules? (Who did? You did, you)
Who did? You did, you (who did? You did, you)
Who did? You did, you (who did?)
You say, "Who did? You did, you
