<pre><font size='+2'>THE GREAT UNKNOWN lyrics DAR WILLIAMS</font><br>Once upon a time, there was a nuclear family<br />
 and they lived in family time, they`d unite in a family way.<br />
 And off on the ancient mountain, they were splitting every nucleus<br />
 and they said `Don`t be alarmed.` They said `Just don`t try this at home`.<br />
 <br />
 And they were the mystery that made the world run,<br />
 and we had the power `cause they were the sun,<br />
 and we called them our heroes, and the future was won,<br />
 and they said `Just look at the light they`re giving you,<br />
 and the darkness that we`re saving you from.`<br />
 <br />
 And soon they were bringing it into our showrooms.<br />
 And they`d unveil it, with it`s title,<br />
 `Bring your family, bring your family, it`s the great unknown`<br />
 <br />
 <br />
 I`m no ordinary princess, I was born in the Cold War,<br />
 and my team is the Rockets, `Go, team! It`s a dangerous time.`<br />
 And I`d dream of the Moon, and building lunar clone colonies,<br />
 And I build my peace through strength -- that`s the best weapon you`ve got.<br />
 <br />
 Oh, I am the brainchild, I am the mortar,<br />
 with a plastic trophy and an eating disorder,<br />
 and a vision as great as the great big wall,<br />
 and they tell me that I`ll move forward,<br />
 for the good of us all, and for the good of nuclear families all.<br />
 <br />
 You think I think I am important,<br />
 but, no, I never was, I wasn`t.<br />
 No, I never, and how could I be?<br />
 It`s the great unknown.<br />
 Now we`ve built it, now it`s ticking,<br />
 it`s the great unknown.<br />
 <br />
 And I am your children, and I am millions,<br />
 and I wanted to sail up, I wanted to try,<br />
 but you know the sky got too low, and the ocean got too high.<br />
 And I had to take God into my own hands.<br />
 Am I too late, is it over?<br />
 Have I sacrificed my family to the great unknown?<br />
 <br />
 So I went out into the gamma fields,<br />
 out in Mercury, Nevada,<br />
 and we stood in a circle, and that circle started to break.<br />
 And the wind at the nuclear test site floats the data of the radiation,<br />
 for the underground testing, `Cross the line, and get arrested.`<br />
 <br />
 And we came from all over in a silent appeal,<br />
 as the drill came down like a Presidential seal,<br />
 and we stand for the living, and we stand for the dead,<br />
 and we looked up to see our enemies,<br />
 and we see that they`re looking all at us instead.<br />
 <br />
 And I said, `You think I am being disruptive.`<br />
 But, no, I`m running home, I`m running<br />
 because I`m trying to put the atom back together.<br />
 It`s the great unknown.<br />
 I`m just trying to put the atom back together.<br />
 It`s the great unknown.<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/the_great_unknown_lyrics-dar_williams.html" target='_blank'>THE GREAT UNKNOWN lyrics DAR WILLIAMS</a></pre>

Once upon a time, there was a nuclear family
and they lived in family time, they`d unite in a family way.
And off on the ancient mountain, they were splitting every nucleus
and they said `Don`t be alarmed.` They said `Just don`t try this at home`.

And they were the mystery that made the world run,
and we had the power `cause they were the sun,
and we called them our heroes, and the future was won,
and they said `Just look at the light they`re giving you,
and the darkness that we`re saving you from.`

And soon they were bringing it into our showrooms.
And they`d unveil it, with it`s title,
`Bring your family, bring your family, it`s the great unknown`

I`m no ordinary princess, I was born in the Cold War,
and my team is the Rockets, `Go, team! It`s a dangerous time.`
And I`d dream of the Moon, and building lunar clone colonies,
And I build my peace through strength -- that`s the best weapon you`ve got.

Oh, I am the brainchild, I am the mortar,
with a plastic trophy and an eating disorder,
and a vision as great as the great big wall,
and they tell me that I`ll move forward,
for the good of us all, and for the good of nuclear families all.

You think I think I am important,
but, no, I never was, I wasn`t.
No, I never, and how could I be?
It`s the great unknown.
Now we`ve built it, now it`s ticking,
it`s the great unknown.

And I am your children, and I am millions,
and I wanted to sail up, I wanted to try,
but you know the sky got too low, and the ocean got too high.
And I had to take God into my own hands.
Am I too late, is it over?
Have I sacrificed my family to the great unknown?

So I went out into the gamma fields,
out in Mercury, Nevada,
and we stood in a circle, and that circle started to break.
And the wind at the nuclear test site floats the data of the radiation,
for the underground testing, `Cross the line, and get arrested.`

And we came from all over in a silent appeal,
as the drill came down like a Presidential seal,
and we stand for the living, and we stand for the dead,
and we looked up to see our enemies,
and we see that they`re looking all at us instead.

And I said, `You think I am being disruptive.`
But, no, I`m running home, I`m running
because I`m trying to put the atom back together.
It`s the great unknown.
I`m just trying to put the atom back together.
It`s the great unknown.
