The Universe

Beth Nielsen Chapman

All the whacked-out wonders of the modern world
Criss-crossed high tech telephone lines
Wound all ‘round our beautiful mother earth
Great big ball of electrical twine
We got it all hooked up
Long as the sun stays plugged
We’ll be soaking up the megahertz
Teaming with creatures and features
That take us through outer space
Swirling in orbits and circles and cycles
That orchestrate the universe

Way down yonder over in Africa
Deep in those indigenous tribes
Something tells them something has happened here
Ancient bones are pickin’ up vibes
And when the ozone hole goes by
The wilde beast stop grazing and the jungle stirs
Lions and tigers and rhinos and
Zebras and pachyderms
Trapped in the forces and
Sychronistic consequences of the universe

One song in all of us
Sweet sound of stardust

Schools of whales in separate hemispheres
Thirteen thousand miles apart
Sing one song that changes from year to year
God knows how they know it by heart
Yeah well, it blows my mind
The way it’s all designed so perfectly unrehearsed
Black holes that suck up the stuff that
The quasars rigurgitate
Galaxies flying and dipping and diving
To celebrate the universe
