The Latest Theory by Brian Dewan Lyrics
Forget the things that you've been told before - it has been shown they are no longer true
Come all ye who will dare to struggle and digest this radical new point of view
There is a brand new theory scientists say will make all previous knowledge obsolete
The theory's backed by unrefutable equations, comprehensive and complete
All these years like fools we've been compliant chumps, obeying all of nature's laws
Trash the classical ideas of time and space; behold effects that have no cause
Through trial-and-error we grope and search accumulating wisdom, knowledge, power and might
Then we'll grow younger than our own descendants traveling backwards at the speed of light
Sentient beings from space inferior to us outnumber us by a thousand score
Though our creator loves all creatures great and small the great creator loves them more
In space there are black holes with gravity so great that God himself cannot escape
The universe is full of deadly booby-traps consuming worlds without a trace
Don't you think that's just the way that things are going to be around here from now on
Accept the theory that is universally accepted but beloved by none
Still some stragglers do contest the theory, say "It's just too ugly to be true."
Truth is beauty thus all beauty is the truth and both of them are always new
The layman nor the expert can pretend to grasp the nature of our current plight
No one really understands the theory but the mathematics work out right
Not everybody loves the latest theory though it's virtues oft have been extolled
All the world believes the latest theory now but someday soon it will be old
All the world believes the latest theory now but someday soon it will be old
Come all ye who will dare to struggle and digest this radical new point of view
There is a brand new theory scientists say will make all previous knowledge obsolete
The theory's backed by unrefutable equations, comprehensive and complete
All these years like fools we've been compliant chumps, obeying all of nature's laws
Trash the classical ideas of time and space; behold effects that have no cause
Through trial-and-error we grope and search accumulating wisdom, knowledge, power and might
Then we'll grow younger than our own descendants traveling backwards at the speed of light
Sentient beings from space inferior to us outnumber us by a thousand score
Though our creator loves all creatures great and small the great creator loves them more
In space there are black holes with gravity so great that God himself cannot escape
The universe is full of deadly booby-traps consuming worlds without a trace
Don't you think that's just the way that things are going to be around here from now on
Accept the theory that is universally accepted but beloved by none
Still some stragglers do contest the theory, say "It's just too ugly to be true."
Truth is beauty thus all beauty is the truth and both of them are always new
The layman nor the expert can pretend to grasp the nature of our current plight
No one really understands the theory but the mathematics work out right
Not everybody loves the latest theory though it's virtues oft have been extolled
All the world believes the latest theory now but someday soon it will be old
