Absolute Zero
They tell you this shit about climate change,
How it makes us all look like Nero.
I don't think we should worry about it,
What scares me is absolute zero.
You may dismiss this as fear of the cold,
I know it goes to the core
If you freeze time, if it's yours or it's mine,
Who would there be to restore it?
Follow me now into Icicle Fields.
You know the place where nothing is real.
God help us if we find the secret that freezes time.
God said, "Let there be light."
We know there's no light without heat.
Prometheus gave one gift to man,
And Zeus gave the buzzards some meat,
Well you know I can shovel some snow,
And I can always put on more attire,
But the cold of deep space is not the place,
To be looking for wood for a fire.
If you believe there's no stoping time,
And maybe the earth is still flat.
Nuclear energy's perfectly safe,
And the earth's on a turtle's back.
There's no need to fear fossil fuels.
The computer's the devil's tool.
It's crazy to think we're on the brink,
When thermodynamics are cool.
Follow me now into Icicle Fields.
You know the place where nothing is real.
God help us if we find the secret that freezes time.
Then why is science never satisfied?
It's always starving for more.
The answers are always wrong in the end,
And the locks are on all of the doors.
Adam was doomed by just one bite,
And Eve thought the snake was alright.
They said the Titanic would never sink.
The ship sank like a stone in the drink.
Locked in the ice is not very nice.
No one would hear you cry.
You can't think of a reason to mark the season,
When time walks silently by.
Trapped in time you can't change your mind.
there's no one to ask who you are.
There won't be gasoline for your time machine.
There won't be pumps to fill your car.
Objects at rest are sluggish at best,
Yet nothing has been so still.
And it must be quiet, you can't deny it,
If it's time that you're trying to kill.
The crushing weight will not abate.
The chill will cut to the bone.
The air will freeze and buckle your knees,
And there won't be a place to call home.
