Mysterious 'Stonehenge' structure discovered in US lake. An enigmatic stone structure has been found beneath the waters of Lake Michigan in the US. Not only that, but this underwater creation is around 5,000 years older than its British counterpart. The stones, which are all made of granite – found locally in the area – are estimated to be around 10,000 years old, thereby making the formation one of the oldest ever discovered in North America. And yet, whilst the Lake Michigan stones are relatively similar in size and shape to the monoliths of Stonehenge, their origins are a lot murkier.

They were tracking the heavens to best determine when to get high and have fun.

Gather 'round I gotta clear up the mystery
About the ancients who created our history
And why they made do with such simple sophistry
They were all on drugs
They were on hard drugs

For evidence I've travelled all the world over
And for decades I'd say that I was a rover
But I never saw a single place that was sober
We were all on drugs
They were on hard drugs

I'll tell you a few:
Tokyo (drugs!)
Mexico (drugs!)
Birmingham (drugs!)
Rotherham (drugs!)
Silbury (drugs!)
Avebury (drugs!)
All of them on hard drugs

The ancients travelled with ephedra and cocaine
To stave off hunger or to put down a migraine (pron. mee-grain)
And no authorities would label them insane
'Cause they were all on drugs
They were on hard drugs

For those of you who hear this history lesson
I hope the evidence is not too depressing
But otherwise I knew that you would be guessing
That they were all on drugs
They were on hard drugs
