Joy Electric The Works Of Unknowns Lyrics

Have to read patiently
Books from past centuries
Books of those rarely seen
Hidden for ages

Painted walls, protraits drawn
Of great empires and royal lawns
Tapestries in banquet halls
Vanished from memory

(Chorus)
Now there's nothing left to be shown
The works of unknowns

I divide, multiply
Write what I learn and why
Lecture to younger minds With sense and reason

I devise formulas
With chemical and minerals
Ponder life through telescopes
And question one's purpose

Have to be commonly
Known as one family
Lengthy geneologies of
Who came before us

Branches of family trees
Drawn by those after these
Pages, proper histories,
Lived then forgotten
