Interrogativa Cantilena (feat. Kevin Ridley)

If all the world were paper
And all the seas were ink
If all the trees were bread and cheese
How should we do for drink?

If there had been no projects
Nor none that did great wrongs
If fiddlers shall turn players all
How should we do for songs?

If all the world were sand'o
Oh, then what should we lack'o
If as they say there were no clay
How should we take tobacco?

If there had been no projects
Nor none that did great wrongs
If fiddlers shall turn players all
How should we do for songs?

If all our vessels ran'a
And none but has a crack'a
If Spanish apes ate all the grapes
How should we do for sack'a?

If there had been no projects
Nor none that did great wrongs
If fiddlers shall turn players all
How should we do for songs?

If friars had no bald pates
Nor nuns had no dark cloisters
If all the seas were beans and peas
How should we do for oysters?

If there had been no projects
Nor none that did great wrongs
If fiddlers shall turn players all
How should we do for songs?

If all things were eternal
And nothing their end bringing
If this should be, then how should we
Here make an end of singing?

If there had been no projects
Nor none that did great wrongs
If fiddlers shall turn players all
How should we do for songs?
