Once upon a time I had this idea
  That the world was round like me
  So I asked the queen for three fine ships
  To sail across the sea

  Traveling with hoodlums as my crewman
  Made me quite a little scared
  Luckily I found that in the new world
  Somebody was already there

  I wasn't very sure just what to call them
  See the funny clothes they wear
  So I called them Indians
  'Cause I knew they were already there
