Running Through Relativity

[Intro – vinyl crackle, ticking clock, theremin, dimensional portal sounds, cosmic synths] Traveler speaking... Coordinates locked... Germany... Year 1921... Let's see... Hopefully I don't accidentally change physics. [Verse 1 – swing piano, upright bass, glitch beat] Stepped through a crack In the fabric of time Hat on my head Pocket watch shining The streets were buzzing Trains running by Everybody rushing Under the Berlin sky Then I saw A messy head Looking like he hadn't slept Notebook open Eyes alive Like equations learned to fly [Pre-Chorus – brass, theremin] Tick-tock Round we spin Another century I'm wandering in [Chorus – Electro Swing] HEY! I'M RUNNING THROUGH RELATIVITY! TIME'S GOT A DIFFERENT GRAVITY! ONE STEP HERE ONE STEP THERE SUDDENLY I'M ANYWHERE! HEY! WHAT A SIGHT! THE STARS ALL BEND WHEN SPACE SAYS "RIGHT!" [Verse 2 – glitch-hop groove, clarinet] "Professor Einstein?" I politely said He looked up slowly Then scratched his head "Interesting suit..." Was all he'd say Guess my fashion Wasn't from his day He smiled a little Asked my name I simply answered "I'm just passing." Didn't dare Explain much more Time travel's awkward At the front door [Pre-Chorus – portal FX, brass] Clock hands twist Worlds collide I'm just enjoying The ride [Chorus – bigger] HEY! I'M RUNNING THROUGH RELATIVITY! TIME'S GOT A DIFFERENT GRAVITY! EVERY SECOND BENDS AND SWAYS LIKE A JAZZ BAND LOST IN SPACE! HEY! DON'T BE LATE! WHEN TIME DECIDES TO REDECORATE! [Verse 3 – fast rap, glitch effects] Saw blackboards Covered in chalk Everybody trying To follow his thoughts Energy Mass Space Time Everything dancing In perfect rhyme I asked, "Does time ever stop?" He just laughed Without a word Sometimes silence Answers better Than the smartest thing you've heard [Bridge – theremin, strings, cosmic ambience] The stars don't care What year you're in Every century Feels paper-thin One little doorway One little spark And history shines Out of the dark [Glitch-Hop Breakdown – portal effects, record scratches] Spin! Jump! Fold! Fly! Another century Passing by! Clock! Gear! Sky! Light! Traveler's feeling... Quite alright! [Final Chorus – brass, choir, huge swing groove] HEY! I'M RUNNING THROUGH RELATIVITY! EVERY ROAD'S A POSSIBILITY! SHAKE MY HAND AND RAISE YOUR HAT I HAD TEA WITH EINSTEIN! IMAGINE THAT! HEY! ONE MORE RIDE! THE COSMOS SINGS AND SO DO I! [Outro – ticking clock, theremin, portal closing] Traveler speaking... Destination complete... Professor... Thanks for the conversation. Next stop... Whenever.
