How did it start? Did I fall into a nuclear reactor?
And crawl out with acid skin or somethin' worse
A hostile alien ambassador

Or am I simply another of the universe's failed experiments?
Either way, I have been wonderin'
just how it is (Just how it is)
I have never heard (Never heard)
the tale of how I got my powers

Thrust into bein', careenin' along
On a crooked little trajectory
Dissolvin' in movement, a body in orbit
Or a roach on his way to the gutter

The tail of a comet burned up in an instant
the destruction of matter
No object to be seen in the supercollider
Just a light in the tunnel or whatever gets scattered
Light flashin' before the eye of whatever comes after
The force of our impact, the fission
The hum of our , the sound of our collision
