Paroles

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
We have our own kind of universe
Sometime but not always true
How come? Wait, maybe I think it is
The view is very nice and it's big through and through
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
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
