Boltzmann Brain

from Andrew Pontzen at Geek Pop by Andrew Pontzen

/

lyrics

Ludwig had the sense to see
what accounts for rising entropy
and then to unveil
a sting in the tail.
Natural economy
Makes the cosmos an anomaly
It tends to curtail
our reckoning of scale.

If we live in a cosmic domain,
Law and order is hard to attain.
Tiny spaces are less of a strain to explain.

Ludwig saw that sense was dead
when his physics said we'd been misled.
It's all a collusion
to cause our delusion.
What seemed real we just misread
Paradoxically faked instead.
No end of confusion:
is life an illusion?

All you knew of that once seemed so plain
starts to crumble before the arcane:
the Universe may just contain your brain.

Boltzmann, ooh, Boltzmann,
Ludwig Boltzmann,
Ooh, Boltzmann brain.

Can you feel the world shrinking?
Nothing real except thinking.

Boltzmann, ooh, Boltzmann,
Ludwig Boltzmann,
Ooh, Boltzmann brain.
