Particle Business by Funky49 Lyrics
Welcome all ya'll to the Fermilab
On the Illinois prairie
Beneath the bison... the frontier of science
Let me introduce to you... FERMILAB!
HOOK
Rock stars of physics, particle business
Smash matter, antimatter and witness
Quarks, bottom to top they don't stop
"where the Higgs at?" yo that's their mark
Where the Higgs at? x3 go go go!
[verse1: funky49]
Tevatron, OG atom smasher
Say hello to CERN's party crasher, the
New "Lord of the Rings" LHC, hear me, this
Be competitive collaboration baby
Strippin' electrons, makin' ions of
Hydrogen, now pull that proton
Give it that speed we need to make real science
Get achieved, I believe, shock
Protons, greatly accelerated
Two teraelectronvolts they now rated
Fated to smash, and get mated
Creatin' smaller bits, energy still equated
We love collisions, take snapshots
Till we get the right shot, learn a lot, yo a
Mad grip of events do occur
Blast fast, data stream is a blur
Normal events, they get ignored
Higgs events, they get adored
HOOK
[verse2: funky49]
High over frontier Wilson Hall tall with
Aesthetics, its a science cathedral
For the people that see with math
Collider detectors and massive graphs
D-Zero or CDF, who's the best?
If pressed I guess who's closest to
Quench the measurement thirst and
Who got their results in first
Collision detectors, fermion collectors
This ain't the 60s with pocket protectors
These peeps cool, like super conducted
Magnets, you know four nine ain't frontin'
HOOK
[verse3: funky49]
To me triple beams don't mean pushin' mad coke
It's scientists in lab coats, so
You ready for insight twilight or limelight?
Research in basic science, I'll fight. who's
Side you with? R&D dollars? or
Pork spending for anyone who hollas?
Brain drain? no technology policy
Ballot box for better decisions in D.C
Rap Carl Sagan over new Vangelis keys
Science cutter clowns get smacked down please, I'm
Trippin' at students slippin' (slippin') in
Test scores, against the world they're dippin
Lets be liftin', positive like positrons
Before we ask where we gone wrong
Down with MTV, forget what you heard
Get lost in Cosmos and Mister Wizard! (repeat x2)
