Guided By Voices - Newton's Hopeless Marriage lyrics

rate me

(R. Pollard)

He went running 'round the streets

And never thought of anyone else

With his laws of gravity

And all the things that he had pretended he knew

And everything that ever went down in the world

It was his marriage to the Earth

And solid land

Newton - have you thought of a plan?

Newton - Have you ever had command?

I saw him once in the streets

Thinking he was some kind of big shot subordinate

Plausing out the purposes that were ever tasked upon them

His artwork was phenomenal

His scientific programs were unusual

Newton - are you ever gonna have a purpose?

Newton - this is you chance to change

A task force copulation emptied

Newton, Newton

What goes up must come down

An object in motion will remain in motion

Until acted upon by another force

That is, unless of course

Newton, you gotta change it

You gotta rearrange it
