Lyrics

If you’re looking at a globe or a map of the world
And if you wanna understand it you gotta know these:
Hemispheres, North & South Poles, Equator
Oceans, Continents, and lots and lots of Countries!

Well the real world is round, and shaped like a sphere
And divided into East and West Hemispheres
Well the real world is round, and shaped like a sphere
And divided into East and West Hemispheres

On the top and the bottom, where it’s always cold
Are two points we call the North and South Poles
On the top and the bottom, where it’s always cold
Are two points we call the North and South Poles

And in between the poles, yes right in the centre
Is an imaginary line we call the Equator!
And in between the poles, yes right in the centre
Is an imaginary line we call the Equator!

If you’re looking at a globe or a map of the world
And if you wanna understand it you gotta know these:
Hemispheres, North & South Poles, Equator
Oceans, Continents, and lots and lots of Countries!

The world is mostly water, I’ll say it again:
The world is mostly water, filled with Oceans!
Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean
Arctic Ocean, Indian Ocean (and the Southern Ocean)

But there is also land so please don’t forget
It’s divided into seven Continents:
North & South America, Europe & Africa
Asia, Australia, and Antarctica

In the continents it’s divided again
Into many different countries also called nations
Now how many countries? – have you ever wondered?
Count em all up its almost two hundred!

If you’re looking at a globe or a map of the world
And if you wanna understand it you gotta know these:
Hemispheres, North & South Poles, Equator
Oceans, Continents, and lots and lots of Countries!
