Imitosis

Album: Armchair Apocryph Durasi: 4:01
[00:17.45]He's keeping busy
[00:18.38]Yeah, he's bleeding stones
[00:21.32]With his machinations and his palindromes
[00:24.91]It was anything but hear the voice
[00:29.01]Anything but hear the voice
[00:32.74]It was anything but hear the voice
[00:35.77]That says that we're all basically alone
[00:46.13]Poor Professor Pynchon had only good intentions
[00:49.92]When he put his Bunsen burners all away
[00:54.03]And turning to a playground in a Petri dish
[00:57.81]Where single cells would swing their fists
[00:59.77]At anything that looks like easy prey
[01:02.42]In this nature show that rages every day
[01:06.63]It was then he heard his intuition say
[01:13.44]We were all basically alone
[01:16.28]And despite what all his studies had shown
[01:19.26]That what's mistaken for closeness
[01:21.19]Was just a case for mitosis
[01:24.15]And why do some show no mercy
[01:27.79]While others are painfully shy
[01:31.78]And tell me doctor, can you quantify?
[01:36.18]'Cause he just wants to know the reason, the reason why
[02:17.58]Why do they congregate in groups of four
[02:20.70]Scatter like a billion spores
[02:23.24]And let the wind just carry them away?
[02:27.17]How can kids be so mean?
[02:30.06]Our famous doctor tried to glean
[02:31.77]As he went home at the end of the day
[02:34.91]In this nature show that rages every day
[02:39.04]It was then he heard his intuition say
[02:46.43]We were all basically alone
[02:48.68]Despite what all his studies had shown
[02:51.52]That what's mistaken for closeness
[02:53.75]Is just a case of mitosis
[02:56.29]Sure fatal doses malcontent through osmosis
[02:59.73]And why do some show no mercy
[03:04.50]While others are painfully shy?
[03:07.95]Well, tell me doctor, can you quantify
[03:12.27]The reason why?
