about

This song's about wishing I could see a ghost or a flying saucer or some amazing psychic phenomenon. Predictability is such a bore. It might be fun to believe in the supernatural.

lyrics

Mr Science

A boy of five in one New Hampshire town
Lies face up on the grass seeking a scare
Imagines what is up is really down
Falls out into the blue ocean of air

I'm so tired of the common
Give me that supernatural phenomenon
That even Mr Science can't explain

When young Maria feels her body change
Lamps books tables and chairs tremble and turn
Deep eyes expose her secret world so strange
Objects meet with her stare, smolder and burn

A haunted mansion in a thunderstorm
Sounds like heaven to me, when do we go?
Predictability's an awful bore
Please, just one little ghost, or UFO
