Why |
| I don’t have any philosophy |
| Why do I know what I know? |
| I see the world in a coffee cup |
| And when I drink it down there I go |
| We have our own kind of universe |
| Sometimes but not always true |
| How come? |
| Wait! |
| Maybe I think it is |
| The view is very nice and it’s big through and through |
| I got skills and I got secrets, I can part my hair |
| I feel an empty space where love could be |
| In adjoining universes |
| Touching here and there |
| I stick my head outside and I can see that |
| Particles spin 'round a nucleus |
| Planets encircle the sun |
| Further out there is the Milky Way |
| The coolest part of all cracks me up, every time |
| Life isn’t really miraculous |
| It had to happen this way |
| We had to meet in this checkout line |
| Explain it as a simple twist of fate |
| But we can’t be sure |
