Take a look at the mountain, take a look at the sea!
Take a look at the vapor floating over the tree!
The boys in Miletus think the gods are in charge
Throwing lightning from the heavens, living heavy and large
But I stripped away the myth, I broke it down to the base!
There’s a single, liquid truth flowing all over the place!
From the ice to the steam, from the dirt to the sweat!
Listen to me, baby, the universe is wet!
Yeah, everything is water!
Let the fundamental flow!
Everything is water!
It’s the only truth I know!
Whether solid, gas, or liquid, it’s the ultimate design!
Now pour a glass of H2O and let the planets align!
Now, I was walking through the olive grove the other night
I had my eyes upon the heavens, tracking orbital light
I was calculating equinoxes, charting the stars!
I was looking for the transit of Venus and Mars!
But I wasn’t looking down, and I took a little spill
Tumbled headfirst down a well at the bottom of the hill!
The Thracian girl laughed, said I had my head in the sky
But I predicted the eclipse, baby! Who’s laughing now? Not I!
The critics tried to tell me that philosophy is weak
They said”You ain’t got no money, you’re a destitute Greek!”
So I checked the meteorology, I looked at the rain
I saw a bumper crop of olives coming over the plain!
I bought up every single press before the winter was through
And when the harvest came around, well, the rent was due!
I made a fortune in a month just to prove I had the skill!
But money bores me, baby, I’m chasing the thrill!
‘Cause everything is water!
Let the fundamental flow!
Everything is water!
It’s the only truth I know!
Whether solid, gas, or liquid, it’s the ultimate design!
Now pour a glass of H2O and let the planets align!
Yeah, float on
Keep it fluid
I’m the first one to think it, baby
The original drip.
