Pie In The Sky Lyrics

It takes photon power
And eight minutes of an hour
To make it to our sun
And I know it sounds weird
But it'll take you four years
To make the next one

Expanding border
That's the sauce of chaos
And that's an order
That's an order

So stomp your feet
And clap your hands
Get out of your seat
And do a little dance
Lift up your voice
And sing with glee
Now listen carefully to me

Desert your quarters
Behold the pie in the sky
And that's an order
That's an order

That's an order.

Eight minutes, isn't that the time it takes for the light from the sun to travel to earth? four years, maybe our closest other star is four light years away?

Peeerhaps, song is about us being really far from everything else in the universe.

I think he's singing partly about being a sun worshipper.

That's exactly right Thundercat, the closest star is Proxima Centauri, four light years away. The universe is both infinite and expanding at the same time. Great song.
