It's a mystery |
|
How the heart beats |
|
How the sun shines |
|
How our eyes meet |
|
It's a mystery |
|
It's a wonder |
|
How we keep from |
|
Sinking under |
|
It's a mystery |
|
All the nonsense |
|
Set before us |
|
Supposed to shock us |
|
But it bores us |
|
All the ennui |
|
All the replays |
|
All the rewrites |
|
All the can't says |
|
It's a mystery |
|
Electron guns fire images |
|
They end in interstellar space within the year |
|
And through it all |
|
We dance and starve and burn and clear |
|
It's a mystery |
|
How they con us |
|
How they sneak til' |
|
They're upon us |
|
All the anchors |
|
With their helmets |
|
Getting ratings |
|
With their zealots |
|
All the pundits |
|
All the salesmen |
|
Setting snake oil |
|
To the nation |
|
All the specials |
|
Every re-run |
|
All the penguins |
|
Getting well-done |
|
It's a mystery |
|
It's a mystery |
|
How the heart beats |
|
How the sun shines |
|
How our eyes meet |
|
It's a mystery |
|
It's a wonder |
|
How we ever |
|
Find each other |
|
It's a mystery |
