The Dull-Eyed Llamas — Science lyrics

Lyrics

The angels are taking flash photography
Of the mountain king
No, you shouldn’t think that it is electricity, no, no
The ionizing ozonating lightning isn’t frightening
No, it’s flattering to the slightly portly king
Oh, why do you require experimental proof?
Can’t you hear the leprechauns upon the roof?
Why do you continue this reliance
On the stultifying skeptitude of science
What do you achieve in refusing to believe
You leave no room for a horse to grow a horn
You squash the world of dreams
With the extremes of your scorn
The poodles are collecting in the garden
It is hard for them not to snap at all the falling Siamese
Oh yes, the iron-fisted reign of the mountain king
It is thundering
But the blustering only happens when he sneezes
(Is) that the only way you will believe in truth?
Objective lab results which can be reproduced?
