I'm happy just to be a member of the the human race
Floating through the universe, A point in time and space,
Born in singularity,this galaxy is fine for me
Nothing here that worries me at all
I comprise of elements formed deep in distant stars ,
The same as those found in the sun or Jupiter or mars,
Nothing more and nothing less, than Einstein's quantum weirdness
nothing metaphysical at all
I don't need the answers I'm still grappling with the questions,
I'd rather take my chances just like Schrödinger's cat,
Before the big inflation there was quantum fluctuation
And no one knows what happened before that
I don't need God or Jesus Christ, to get me through my day,
I prefer the questions to the answers anyway
All those robed and bearded men,
Scarring children's hearts and then Selling them salvation for their sins,
Sin is when you break the rules they make to keep you down,
Who you sleep with who you love ,Before you hit the ground
With cruel hearts so filled with hate, Standing guard at heavens gate,
Ain't It great to live the Christian life
I don't need the answers I'm still grappling with the questions,
I'd rather take my chances, like Schrödinger's cat,
Before the big inflation there was quantum fluctuation
And no one knows what happened before that
Bridge
If I was there at the final sunrise,
I'd stand on the edge of the void, and dive
We evolved from simpler forms and bits of DNA
Self replicating chemicals don't happen in one day
One step forward, two steps back,constantly under attack
Darwinian competitors and other nasty predators.
When the universe grows tired and terminally old,
heat death come to everyone and it is dark and cold,
And absolutely zero kelvin rules the kingdom come
And everything that ever lived or breathed will be long gone
A bit depressing if you think about it for too long
I don't need the answers I'm still grappling with the questions,
I'd rather take my chances just like Schrödinger's cat,
The galaxies will fly apart, cold and dead like at the start
And nothing else will happen after that
