lyrics

On Parker Road and Lincoln sat an old art gallery
Where the hung up art, as it often does, held intricate critiques
Of irrational thought, social issues, and political policy
Where at the center of the room one picture seemed to sing to me
Painted thickly in a lab coat sat a bearded scientist
Pouring deadly chemicals into an Erlenmeyer flask
Which at the bottom held a blue green orb we’ve rightfully named earth
And it bled from the pores where the chemicals had been caught in its girth

So scream to me oh artist
How you don’t value the worth
Of a craft you’ve tried to dismantle
Instead of try to learn

Woahhhhhhhhh you could be wrong
Woahhhhhhhhh we could be wrong

At the same time sat a man of science cooked up in his home
Who just like the starving artist had resentments of his own
Burning openings in a canvas with his poison cigarette
Straight through the bodies of his drawings of the German Silhouettes
Which once he had felt pulled towards out on the plaza street
So forcefully attracted that he’d sketch them while he’d eat
But now he’s lost his draw to beauty to the data he has earned
Through the loss of cells that can’t be seen in a hemocytometer

So scream to me oh scientist
How you don’t value the worth
Of a craft you once held dearly
That you’ve now tried to unlearn

Woahhhhhhhhh you could be wrong
Woahhhhhhhhh I could be wrong

Some things work together (x3)
And I feel like all this separation is a waste of potential
