Intro

well theres one thing mama

I think you should know

it is not love

that makes the flowers grow

but a complex electron transfer process known as photosynthesis

when chlorofyll reacts to the light of day

but since you're gone

the light has gone away

well theres one more thing mama

I think you will find

it is not love

that makes the stars shine

but the spontaneous combuston of super heated super condensed gasses

in a process known as fusion

that creates new elements when the time is right

but since you're gone

the stars dont shine so bright

well theres another thing mama

I think I should confide

it is not love

that'll turn the tide

but the net difference in the gravitational pull

between the earth and the moon

as it is acted out upon the waves

but since youre gone

I feel washed away

I could've been a mathmatician

studied rockets for a livin

would've worked out better in the end

but to get more specific

I'd break every law of physics

to bring you back to me again

well theres one more thing

I'll tell you if I can

it is not love

that makes a non-stick frying pan

but a top secret trademark conglomerated

most likely carcinogenic polyeurothane compound

spreading of microthin substance over a negatively charged layer

of aluminum, copper, iron, lead, vhs, fyi, apple pie, FBI,

and some other elements too

but since youre gone

I wish I'd stuck to you.
