First there was nothing or
Was there ever nothing?
What was the matter,
Where can the matter be in
This atomic life?

Daddy saw mommy and they
Woke up the sleeper cell and the
Quarks and the googols shot me
Right between the orbits of atomic life,
Welcome to this atomic life.

Chorus:
Now we’re the talk of the stars,
Now we’re the voice of the universe,
Is anybody out there?
Is anybody home?

We caught the horses and
Crossed the mountains, we cut the
Trees and we crossed the water
In this atomic life.

We wove the baskets we
Made the cases, we painted
Crimson and gold on the
Traces of atomic life
In search of the atomic life.

Bridge:
We go on in our enchantment
We go on in our atomic life
We’re all pieces of atomic life
We make a whole in this atomic life
