Mystery.History.Science.Romance

We're a mystery
We're a romance
Looking for a happy end
Less expenses,
We've a dollar
And sixty three cents
To our names
To our names
To our names
To have died to leave a name

We are history
We are science
In the shadow of the bomb
We're the wind in our hair
On our bicycles
And in an instant gone
We're not all
Sons of bitches,
Oppenheimer
Mostly we just wanna ride home

We're the cartoon
We're the comedy
If you really need an out
Laughter is the flower
Of the dreaming
Of the horror
Coursing through the roots
Reaching down
Reaching down
Reaching down
Clawing all the way down

We are reason
We're excuses
We love a pretty graph
Do the action
Do the action
Action louder than the math
Talk it to us
Sing it to us
Do an interpretive dance

We are mystery
We are romance
We just want someone to love
We are sickness
We're contagious
Should we trust each other close?
We're not all
Sons of bitches,
Oppenheimer
Mostly we just want to ride home
