To Modern Science

from NURSERY MYTHS by THE BLACK AND WHITE YEARS

/

lyrics

let’s work it out.
cultural heartbeat – let’s keep it ticking.
the future is uncertain, so let us work it out.
requisite gut-check. nothing is impossible.
the future is not clawless, so let us work it out.
and keep the life debt. let’s keep it going.
we’ll isolate the beauty gene.
I propose a toast to modern scientists.
I put my faith in the brighter brains
of modern science.modern scientists,
you are the glorious sons of Cain.
let’s work it out.
cultural heartbeat – let’s keep ticking.
the future is not pretty. most like to leave you choked.
your little heartbeat, I promise you won’t miss it.
the future is not perfect. most like to leave you there.
with just your life debt. always, always waiting.
we’ll isolate the beauty gene. I propose a toast to modern scientists.
I put my faith in the brighter brains of modern science.
I put my faith in your capable hands.
modern scientists, you are the glorious sons of Cain.
I put my faith in your brighter brain.
I believe in the ghost stories that you told me.
another day, another dose of the main frame –
another seam in the tapestry.
I put my life in the arms of space,
I believe in the myths that nursed me.
I put my faith in the hard of heart,
I’m sure that it’s necessary.
surely, all of this is so profound
and it’s nice to talk about.
but I hope you can work it all out.
I hope you work it all out.
I hope you work it out.
we’ll need that heartbeat.
let’s keep it ticking.
I hope we work it out
and keep the heartbeat going.
