Galileo turned his gaze up to the stars, He saw the moons of Jupiter, saw sunspots, and saw The Church said this heresy, the people must be spared But as they prayed, the ground was For E=mc squared.
Newton's laws of motion sure physics knowledge soar He then invented calculus, so students be bored His laws persisted for several hundred years one upstart young patent clerk threw a wrench into the gears
E=mc squared, my squared The boldest anybody ever dared No what we've done, The could never be prepared For the man who helped us That squared
Maxwell how light is waves that propogate through space A substance as ether was said to permeate the place Michaelson and Morley showed the ether wasn't Einstein that space and time are joined up everywhere
E=mc squared, my squared The boldest declaration anybody ever No matter we've done, The world never be prepared For the man who us understand That squared
Schrödinger's equation that particles are waves To a probability, that's how we all behave But Heisenberg's reality is more obscure Where you are and you're going, you cannot know for sure
