lyrics

It’s easy to get hung up on causality,
earnestly discuss epistemology.
but everything is A-OK. Discard the things you know.
That’s the risk it took to blossom and to grow.
Stephen told us how and when the ship got built,
how the quote unquote shipbuilder had no guilt.
But everything is A-OK. We figured how to row.
That’s the risk it took to blossom and to to grow.
And if you have questions (and you’ll have questions),
just be sure to write them down.
If you must have every Erg accounted for,
they might prove elusive. Try the Jersey shore.
But everything is A-OK. We need a road to hoe.
That’s the risk it took to blossom and to grow.
