Science wears a new suit
To his coffee toast and eggs
But he has to skip the stairs now
'Cause of two broken legs

Whine whine "I cannot climb"
Everytime's the same
I'd be more inclined to help him
If he could remember my name

And you're sad and you're sorry
Well let it all out.
What are you running for?
This is your chance!
Be ready?
I'm taking my seat
Oh lucky me

Faith can't fill the dance hall
'Cause her powers have declined
But at the beauty pageant
She will always take the prize

Light, light Easter white
Roll her in the dirt
When it comes time for kneeling
She'll say "You go first"

And you're sad and you're sorry
Well let it all out.
What are you running for?
This is your chance!
Be ready?
I'm taking my seat
Oh lucky me

La la la la la la

A wise men once tried to tell me
How to sugar-coat the grave
But the game is for the adults
And I don't know how to play

O where will I go?
Toss me out to sea
When the jar's all out of candy
Don't come blaming me

And you're sad and you're sorry
Well let it all out.
What are you running for?
This is your chance!
Be ready?
I'm taking my seat

O You're sad and you're sorry
Well let it all out.
What are you running for?
Tell the whole world!
We're waiting.
I'm taking my seat
Oh lucky me

La la la la

    General Comment:This song is about the argument of what happens to you when you die.

    Science vs. Religion. Science says you're just...cease to exist, faith says you'll go to heaven.

    But of course science has been beaten down, by faith who looks better (going to heaven is a more favorable thing to think about) and will never kneel to science "you go first!"

    Sarah is pondering "oh oh where will I go" ..."what are you running for?" since there's no escape from death.
