Atom Smasher
September 10, 2008
Lab coats, clipboards, take notes
It’s an important day in Geneva
Deep underground, look what we’ve found
the path to Greater Knowledge
Hurrying, scurrying, finger-nail biting
Our life’s work complete, isn’t this exciting
Switch on the machine, and see what we find
Amongst the cranes, tubes and magnets
Is something Divine
The hum of the systems, the whizzing and whooshing
We’d crank it up fully but that would be pushing
So we wait, till the particles, the atoms collide
in such beautiful colours, many tears leave the eye
We’re nearly there, to the Final Frontier
and we don’t even have to step a foot outside here
If there’s a God he’d be nervous. His mysteries gone
Who knows what else we’ll find while it’s on?
Extra dimensions? Time travel too?
This is indeed exciting, we’re learning reality anew!
They all say it’s dangerous, that the planet may dissapear
But hey, that’s nature…and science, my dear
