The Ernies - Here & Now lyrics

the buzz of electric lamplight from down on the sidewalk you struggle, grasp your night-shirt and turn but the universe doesn't say what you want it to say the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says but on the planet earth, spinning around its axis revolving around the sun, revolving around the center of the milky way galaxy in a supercluster of galaxies will it ever be you and me here and now? your consoling hands in a gesture well placed and throbbing throbbing with the buzz of electric lamplight from down on the sidewalk but the universe doesn't say what you want it to say the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says but on the planet earth, spinning around its axis revolving around the sun, revolving around the center of the milky way galaxy in a supercluster of galaxies will it ever be you and me here and now? the buzz of electric lamplight from down on the sidewalk you struggle, grasp your night-shirt and turn but the universe doesn't say what you want it to say the universe says, just what it says, when it says what it says quanta, mesons, hadrons, photons, neutrons, electrons and protons combining to form atoms and molecules and compounds and cells, tissues and organs in a system of a being on the planet earth, spinning around its axis, revolving around the sun, revolving around the center of the milky way galaxy in a supercluster of galaxies will it ever be you and me here and now?
