"Bite The Wax Tadpole" lyrics

"Bite The Wax Tadpole"

Last night I awoke with all the answers
And, quickly, I grabbed hold of pen and paper
To write down, so in the morning I wouldn't forget

Next day, I looked over what was written
And, oddly, it was only ones and zeroes
But perfect in the fact that it completed my set

Product of life, I've been told
Theories are stagnant and old
Time to demystify something new
Necessity leads us to change
What we discover is strange
Solely depending on point of view

Tonight, tonight, I turn out my light
And dream of carbon and protein which increase my might

Research avoids some regret
Predicting what we will get
Error accepted and therefore gone
Physics just hinder the dream
Bite the wax tadpole, it seems
Progress continues and marches on

Tonight, tonight, I turn out my light
And dream of vitamins and haircuts and genetic delight

Last week, I was working in my kitchen
When, oddly, I discovered cold fusion
So I wrote down the process on the back of my hand

Next time, when the recipe repeated
I still thought that something else was needed
'Cause texture and flavor were still quite bland

Product of life, I've been told
Theories are stagnant and old
Time to demystify something new
Necessity leads us to change
What we discover is strange
Solely depending on point of view

Tonight, tonight, I turn out my light
And dream of hygiene and posture which make me seem right

Research avoids some regret
Predicting what we will get
Error accepted and therefore gone
Physics just hinder the dream
Bite the wax tadpole, it seems
Progress continues and marches on

Tonight, tonight, I turn out my light
And dream of carbon and protein which increase my might

I dreamt I was swimming in the ocean
And came face to face with a blue whale
It frightened me the size that it would grow
And I found my purpose, I must prevent this
Before he hurts us
Bite the wax tadpole

Last night I awoke with all the answers
And, quickly, I grabbed hold of pen and paper
To write down, so in the morning I wouldn't forget

Then on the next day, I looked over what was written
And, oddly, there was only ones and zeroes
But perfect in the fact that it completed my set
