[Verse 1]

Spiral galaxies would turn in your eyes

When I came by with a small surprise

You loved all of my little quarks, so what went wrong?

Don’t superstring me along, come on

[Chorus]

Was there a big bang that I just missed?

Did some explosion cause a redshift?

'Cause you’re moving away from me, but what did I do?

The universe is mostly empty space without you

Oh, without you

[Verse 2]

Wave or particle, I can’t be both

So just say which way you like me most

I can be an experiment in your bedroom lab

To figure how the light we had went bad

[Chorus]

Was there a big bang that I just missed?

Did some explosion cause a redshift?

'Cause you’re moving away from me, but what did I do?

The universe is mostly empty space without you

[Bridge]

I’ll build a collider and smash us to bits

To see what’s inside us, to see if we stick

'Cause I will try anything this side of the Milky Way

To figure out why in the world you’re drifting away

[Chorus]

Was there a big bang that I somehow missed?

Did some explosion cause a redshift?

'Cause you’re moving away from me, but what did I do?

What did I do?

The universe is mostly empty space without you

Was there a big bang?

Yeah, did some explosion, explosion, explosion, explosion

'Cause you’re moving away from me, but what did I do?

The universe is mostly empty space without you
