the glory of the atom begs a reverent word the primary design of the whole universe the smallest unit of matter let us bow our heads at the magnificent consciousness incarnate there yeah the smallest unit of matter with its orbiting electrons echoing off the solar system like a hawk in the hills at dawn the smallest unit of matter uniting bird and rock and tree and you and me let the religious get religion let the consumers get a clue let the scientists get perspective let the activists get their dues let industry get a conscience let the earth inherit the meek let the divinity of nature speak oh glory of the atom deserves a reverent word the primary design of the whole universe let us sing its praises let us bow our heads in prayer to the magnificent consciousness incarnate there oh holy is the atom the truly intelligent design to which all of evolution is graciously aligned the one single structure to which everything distills the air, the wood smoke there, and the hills you leave me here surrounded by everything that's real far outside the boundaries of the digitized ordeal leave me here awake leave me here to heal human beings are a cross between monkeys and ants you can see us from your spaceship melting the polar ice caps with our arrogance summon a congress of angels dressed in riot gear we've got a serious problem down here i have a great great uncle who worked on the atomic bomb he got a nobel prize in physics and a place in this song and i bet there were no windows and no women in the room when they applied themselves to the pure science of doom messin' with the atom is the highest form of blasphemy whether you making weapons or simple electricity someone fashion me a pulpit i have been called to engage with the maniacal heretics of the nuclear age the glory of the atom begs a reverent word the primary design of the whole universe the smallest unit of matter let us bow our heads in prayer at the magnificent consciousness incarnate there |
