rachel glassberg - through the wall lyrics

Loading...

i studied quantum physics back in university
i can still remember my professor said to me
that if you think about it there ain’t anything at all
to keep a human being from walking through a wall

because people are just atoms, which are mostly empty sp-ces
just energy from sunlight fixed in arbitrary places
so i walked forward resolutely and pretended not to see
the white expanse of plaster spreading out in front of me

as you can imagine, it wasn’t a success
i p-ssed out on the lab floor, my face a bl–dy mess

i ran the calculations and everything seemed right
but i couldn’t find one particle relating m-ss to light
deep in my frustration i heard somebody say
scientists in switzerland were trying to find a way

so i flew down to geneva and i took a tour of cern
but i broke off from the tour group when the leader’s back was turned
i ran to the collider, started flipping all the switches
screaming “show me what i’m missing, you withholding sons of b-tches”

security was ruthless; they threw me in a cell
the walls were made of cinderblock as far as i could tell

four or five years later i still hadn’t gotten far
when i saw my old professor through the window of a bar
i sat down at his table and he ordered me a beer
he asked about my research and i broke down into tears

i said people are just atoms, but they’re still subject to forces
in my case, certain impulses; in your case three divorces
and i’m not your student now and i can tell that you’ve been drinking
it won’t take a quantum physicist to find out what i’m thinking

i got his number after
though i knew i wouldn’t call
he left through the back door
and i left through the wall
