Lyrics

Lyrics by jack micay

(Mike in a deep voice)
Galileo, netwon, watt, they were genuises all
Without them we'd be freezing in the dark at the mall
James joule found total energy remains the same
(Murray)
No matter what it's form
(Mike)
That's why it carries his name

(Jian)
A chemical, electrical, potential and heat
Radiant, kinetic, ooh the list is incomplete
They're always changing back and forth
It's really quite a blur
(Murray)
Oh, how could he?
(Jian)
I've forgotten nuclear!

(All)
Ride a barrel down the falls
Then cook spaghetti with meatballs
Really make your friends amazed
Nuke it with some gamma rays
Fly to venus in a rocket
Put your finger in a socket
You may suffer from exhaust
But none of that energy is ever really lost

(Murray)
Then why can't we make a clean machine that moves perpetually?
Cause there's another law with which all energy must agree
Whenever it changes form, it loses quality

(Dave)
In other words..

(Murray)
Down/damn that rising entropy!

(Dave)
It's entropy you see that turns finess into mess
A palace to a pig-stye why it's simply scandalous!
Energy once neat degenerates into waste heat (we must repeat.)
Because of entropy

From the liner:
1993- a lot more exciting than it's sister song, inertia. the band
Is very
Committed to heightening awareness around this issue

(Recorded by doug
Mccelement, march '93
At comfort sound, toronto.)
