Hoping for a hurricane to come
Blowing through the scrapyard
Assembling a zeppelin
A zeppelin to escape in
Fly to the edge
Fly to the end of the world
The only this is, (?)
Monkeys have revealed the universe
Maybe I'll evolve an eye to see the mysteries of this quirky life
Maybe a thousand monkeys will type me a letter
Explaining suns and stars
Quarks and quasars
How the universe is held together
When the letter arrived
I was just one line:
It said "The universe is big and old and dark and cold."
The universe is big and old and dark and cold
Doesn't need us
No it doesn't need us
Doesn't need us to exist
Hoping for a hurricane to come blowing through the scrapyard
Assembling an aeroplane
An aeroplane to escape in
Suns and stars, quarks and quasars
Are all explained in the monkey's letter
Maybe I'll evolve and eye to see the mysteries of this care free life
When the letter arrived it was just one line
It said "The universe is blind."
Waiting for the hurricane
Waiting for hurricane
To come blow through the scrapyard
Come blow!
Come blow through the scrabyard
Come blow!
