The Ernies Here And Now lyrics

(Here we go, uh)
The buzz of electric lamplight
From down on the sidewalk
You struggle
Grasp your night shirt and turn

But the universe doesn't say
What you want it to say
The universe says, just what it says
When it says what it says

But on the Planet Earth
Spinning around its axis
Revolving around the Sun
Revolving around the center

Of the Milky Way galaxy
In a super cluster of galaxies
Will it ever be you and me?

Here and now, here and now
Here and now, here and now

Your consoling hands in a gesture
Well placed and throbbing
Throbbing with the buzz of electric lamplight
From down on the sidewalk

But the universe doesn't say
What you want it to say
The universe says, just what it says
When it says what it says

But on the Planet Earth
Spinning around its axis
Revolving around the Sun
Revolving around the center

Of the Milky Way galaxy

In a super cluster of galaxies
Will it ever be you and me?

Here and now, here and now
Here and now, here and now

The buzz of electric lamplight
From down on the sidewalk
You struggle, grasp
Your night-shirt and turn

But the universe doesn't say
What you want it to say
The universe says, just what it says
When it says what it says

Quanta, mesons, hadrons
Photons, neutrons, electrons
And protons combining to form

Atoms and molecules
And compounds and cells
Tissues and organs
In a system of a being

But on the Planet Earth
Spinning around its axis
Revolving around the Sun
Revolving around the center

Of the Milky Way galaxy
In a super cluster of galaxies
Will it ever be you and me?

Here and now, here and now
Here and now, here and now
