lyrics

search for something more
find it if its true
facts will take you in the right direction
logic will guide you through

and don't just believe your
eyes and ears or what seems right then
the numbers that surround it all
they have to correlate too
don't fall into some
cozy thinking
you got to find out, and rule out
every single possibility

feed the brain each day
research and know the way

not believing what your
eyes and ears seemed right then
the numbers that were there they showed a
statistical significance
you ruled in, and ruled out
each and every single possibility, that you thought of
and the answer you found
will be continued
to be confirmed...

let the world see what you found
and let them try to shred it all and all and all apart

and if they can't
while others confirmed what you found
and continued to pass it around
each one that participates
may be enemy or friend

"Sound is all around us...everywhere
it beats in our eardrums until much of the time
we are hardly conscious of it
but on this particular Saturday morning
Jimmy Foster suddenly became very conscious of it..."

not all will agree...

"Son,
You're still a citizen with the power to vote.
Living in a scientific age we need citizens
who know enough about science
to make intelligent decisions about what they do.
We use science to prolong life,
increase security and happiness,
but it could also be used for destruction.
Are we gonna use it constructively to promote peace
and give the world freedom from want?
It will be up to you, and you too...
Yeah, I see what you mean.
It gives a fella a lot to think about..."

give me lots to think about
because between you and me
and between us and them
were just human after all
all alone in the dark

and in that dark
there’s no other way to be found
then to constantly search all around
in here somewhere
is something that we must all know... and it has to be confirmed

and don't just believe your
eyes and ears or what seems right then
the numbers that surround it all
they have to correlate too
don't fall into some
cozy thinking
you got to find out, and rule out
every single possibility

not believing what your
eyes and ears seemed right then
the numbers there they showed a
statistical significance
you ruled in, and ruled out
each and every possibility, that you thought of
and the answer you found
will be continued
to be confirmed...
