Funky49 - Particle Business lyrics

Welcome all ya'll to the Fermilab On the Illinois prairie Beneath the bison... the frontier of science Let me introduce to you... FERMILAB! HOOK Rock stars of physics, particle business Smash matter, antimatter and witness Quarks, bottom to top they don't stop "where the Higgs at?" yo that's their mark Where the Higgs at? x3 go go go! [verse1: funky49] Tevatron, OG atom smasher Say hello to CERN's party crasher, the New "Lord of the Rings" LHC, hear me, this Be competitive collaboration baby Strippin' electrons, makin' ions of Hydrogen, now pull that proton Give it that speed we need to make real science Get achieved, I believe, shock Protons, greatly accelerated Two teraelectronvolts they now rated Fated to smash, and get mated Creatin' smaller bits, energy still equated We love collisions, take snapshots Till we get the right shot, learn a lot, yo a Mad grip of events do occur Blast fast, data stream is a blur Normal events, they get ignored Higgs events, they get adored HOOK [verse2: funky49] High over frontier Wilson Hall tall with Aesthetics, its a science cathedral For the people that see with math Collider detectors and ma**ive graphs D-Zero or CDF, who's the best? If pressed I guess who's closest to Quench the measurement thirst and Who got their results in first Collision detectors, fermion collectors This ain't the 60s with pocket protectors These peeps cool, like super conducted Magnets, you know four nine ain't frontin' HOOK [verse3: funky49] To me triple beams don't mean pushin' mad coke It's scientists in lab coats, so You ready for insight twilight or limelight? Research in basic science, I'll fight. who's Side you with? R&D dollars? or Pork spending for anyone who hollas? Brain drain? no technology policy Ballot box for better decisions in D.C Rap Carl Sagan over new Vangelis keys Science cutter clowns get smacked down please, I'm Trippin' at students slippin' (slippin') in Test scores, against the world they're dippin Lets be liftin', positive like positrons Before we ask where we gone wrong Down with MTV, forget what you heard Get lost in Cosmos and Mister Wizard! (repeat x2) HOOK
