lyrics

As shepherds watched their flocks by night and gazed up at the sky,
A grain of dust hit a gravity well and briefly lit the night.
Then came news that the King had died,
So they decided that the fireball was a sign,
from God.

Don't fault them, they were only theorizing.
Bored at work, while livestock supervising.

Science has the answers
We just don't have all the science
we're piecing it together
but the code still isn't cracked
Every answer we discover
asks another hundred questions,
As fallacy is left behind
and fiction turns to fact

In our modern age, we think that we know better now.
But everywhere you turn, con artists abound.
Flat earth, "psychics," pyramid power
healers who claim they channel their power
from God.

Faulting them is fine - they know they lie
Taking wallets while they pull wool over eyes

Science has the answers
We just don't have all the science
we're piecing it together
but the code still isn't cracked
Every answer we discover
asks another hundred questions,
As fallacy is left behind
and fiction turns to fact

Imagination makes sense of,
patterns our brains fake sense of.
Imagination makes sense of,
patterns our brains fake sense of.

Science has the answers
We just don't have all the science
we're piecing it together
but the code still isn't cracked
Every answer we discover
asks another hundred questions,
As fallacy is left behind
and fiction turns to fact
