Schrodinger's Cat
===========================
In science, some concepts
are hard to explain
so they put them in layman's terms
making it easier on the brain
Quantum mechanics is a new idea
so complex
it will totally screw
with your cerebral cortex
So Schrodinger came up with
a simple thought experiment
to show how the old laws of physics
could be broken or bent
Chorus
=========================
It's both dead and alive
wrap your mind around that
this is the paradoxical story
of Schrodinger's Cat
=========================
The state of a feline
on the surface, appears to be fixed
it is either alive and breathing
or doesn't exist
but of course there's that crazy theory
of the quantum type
that for decades has caused
respected physicists to grip
If you put a little pussycat
inside a box that is sealed
with a killer particle on the loose
and the results totally concealed
It turns out the cat can be
simultaneously in 2 different forms
both living and deceased
due to the subatomic norms
Chorus
=========================
It's both dead and alive
from a form of theoretical combat
this is the amazing story
of Schrodinger's Cat
=========================
Don't get confused with Pavlov's and his dog
and that bell that made it salivate
that mutt never even came close
to entering into a quantum state
or Wilbur and that talking horse Mr. Ed
there were no physics to be learned from the things he said
They're many famous tales about a man and his pet
but the one that I told you beats them all, no sweat
Chorus
=========================
It's both dead and alive
wrap your mind around that
this is the paradoxical story
of Schrodinger's Cat
=========================
