Bang - Tori Amos

Bang went the gun on their tongue

Word crucifixion toward immigrants shunned

“Immigrants that’s who we all are

‘Cause we’re all made of stars”

You said to them

Oh yes you did

Bang went the universe

Hydrogen lusting for Helium’s burst

A mighty Sun’s Dance of Death

Exploding Super Nova

One story’s end

Seeds another to begin

Then the Heavens opened

And then I heard voices

Joined in Hosannas

Breathlessly I saw your star

So bright it blinded me

I had to shield my eyes

So bright it blinded me

I had to shield my eyes

So bright it blinded me

I had to shield my eyes

And then you took my hand

Oh yes you did

Bang the world now traumatized

By a cluster of hostile humans who side

With their warlords of hate

So we must out-create

With the the Backbone of Night

To Rehumanize

Then the Heavens opened

And then I heard voices

Joined in Hosannas

And their tower of confusion

Could not drown the light

From your star

So bright it blinded me

I had to shield my eyes

So bright it blinded me

I had to shield my eyes

So bright it blinded me

I had to shield my eyes

And then you lit the path

Oh yes you did

“Can’t they see”

He said to me

“That we all

Are Molecular Machines”
