I see molecules, I see you,
I see the way that matter scatters out and makes things move. 
I see the backs of my eyelids, never looked so beautiful, 
there are shapes and light with eyes so tight and swirling little pixels. 
It's a funny seeming, fuzzy feeling to think about all that I'm seeing, 
all that is, birds and fish, plants and apes and annelids. 
Traffic smoke and atmosphere, it's a one way ticket out of here,
it's a science you can trust, it's a molecule and it's here with us.

Finally I'm right, 
Finally you're wrong, 
I've seen molecules, all along.


To be young and dumb and innocent,
to fear your life and want to live. 
To sleep and wake naturally, to treat your brain how it's supposed to be, 
one with nature, two for tea, three's a crowd not all for me.
To walk the plank, find the shark, underwater, in the dark.
And the air we breathe, it comes from trees, 
it's not carried by air or sky, but is the breeze. 
It's like chlorophyll, bits of rice, with ice cold water, warmed up ice. 
Fish eat plankton and plankton is, molecules like food for fish. 

Finally I'm right, 
Finally you're wrong, 
I've seen molecules, all along.

[Interlude]

I see molecules and I see you,
I see friends in stars, I see faces in moons. 
And I see molecules, and I see light,
I see colors and shapes in the middle of the night. 
And finally I'm right, finally you're wrong, 
and finally I dance with confidence to songs, 
that sing of hope, and love and truth, 
when you are nothing, you're still something, you're molecules.
