Newton

This one's about a guy named Newton, not the scientist once a shy quiet kid, now a lonely man, a weirdo, a freak, but please understand, he thinks outside the box trying to figure it out.. the meaning of life, what's it all about? Pondering perspective, noise and sound Newton eats apples and records on a tape cassette Music as an outlet, strange but creative, yes! *CHORUS* He won't be held down by convention, like a force apposing gravity, Newton is out the box, is it genius or insanity?!

Newton, an acoustic engineer, obsessed with the control of sound, he was working on a train station, but the people in charge got very impatient, so he stormed out in his indignation, and thought about the meaning of life, and what he was doing here, Newton what are you doing here, Newton what are you doing here Newton what are you doing here ahhhhhh ahhhhh Newton, thought and thought and thought, he read all he could on the matter, he came to the conclusion just to let go, and he quit his stressful job with a happy glow, and he made a living now with a puppet show, that he designed and built, Newton got perspective, and he didn't have to define gravity, or suffer a blow to the head from an apple ahhhhhh ahhhhh Newton got perspective, and he didn't have to define gravity, or suffer a blow to the head from an apple ahhhhhh ahhhhh

he stands to himself his mind so bleak surrounded by people who call him a freak he's just a bit quiet as he ponders the meaning of life of noise of sound a world he can be around what do you say when the cassette sings no more what do you say when he's lost his cause to speak for open your eyes and maybe he'll open his newton sing to me your world of bliss

Listening to his echo on an old cassette Still searching for a box he can think in And find the meaning of it all He keeps to himself, that’s what the neighbors say Newton’s a freak who feels the gravity And catches the apple That everyone leaves behind Listening to his echo on an old cassette Still searching for a box he can think in And find the meaning of it all The meaning of it all The meaning of ti all.

Yeah Its Newton Here we go It Newton He thinks outside of the box and he doesn't give a stuff what you think your opinion is useless its all in his brain whirling around like a hurricane he refrains from caring if you think he's lame he breaks away from the crowd and hides under his covers but thinking side the box think think think thinking about everything is what he loves why are we here and where did we come from yeahhh,life is just a bunch of problems Newton Newton the weird one Your friends would love you if you knew them TO BAD YOU HAVE NONE go outside and get some you really need them there are other people who think out side the box doesn't matter if your quite or not just take the chance it doesn't matter if you get rejected you've been rejected your whole life so whats the goddamn difference the pain in strife that you fell inside hurts to much to loose this time Well that fine by my stay on your own be a loner if you really want you could parter who thinks the same as you who you can share all with and she will or just stay alone is that you want to do IS THAT REALLY WHAT YOU WANT TO DO (repeat of the first chorus but with extra emotional depth or whatever)

I’m not alone in the world I am surround by the matter that matters I figure all the time you’ll never know what your after till after and then a burst of gravity and I’m falling out tree and as far as I can see infinitely Im not alone when I’m alone I hears the tones and the signals of the world Im nor afraid of what may come earth she’s seen it all before and I may fall like an apple falls but when I come crashing to the ground I will have left my mark upon it colors and sound color and sound

Newton ist ein ruhiger Mann, fröhlich, anders, dann und wann denkt er über vieles nach, das Leben, Ton mit viel Gemach er denkt über Geräusche nach die er auf Kassette aufnehmen kann Er ist ein Querdenker, er ist ein Querdenker, er ist ein Querdenker, er denkt ein bisschen anders Newton ist ein toller Mann, experimentiert dann und wann die Schwerkraft hat ihn fasziniert, dank Apfel ist es dann passiert Er ist ein Querdenker, er ist ein Querdenker, er ist ein Querdenker, er denkt ein bisschen anders

Newton, not the scientist though he likes to think about why humans exist you can catch him alone thinkin’ a lot and he loves to think outside the box he records music on cassette tapes he keeps to himself, but he’s still great he’s got quite a lonely reality, but his thoughts are so big, they defy gravity it’s newtown, guys oh so wise maybe 1 day he’ll win a nobel prize It’s Newtown, newtown, newtown he likes gluton it’s Newton

Newton, is such a quite guy. Messin', with tapes and mics. He's Sitting around, making his sounds. What is life all about? Newton, knows that the sun will rise. And Newton, will sit and study why. He's quite the cool guy, and no one can deny that he's one of a kind. Newton sits around, makin' his sound, 'till the last apple hits the ground.

What is this gravity? He's finding it hard, To find the meaning of life, When he's quiet staying far Away... Newton sits there by himself, By himself With noone to tell About the sound and noise that he hears Don't know where he'd rather be, maybe recording some music on cassettes on cassettes maybe What is this gravity

Are you lonesome tonight, do you miss me tonight? Are you sorry we drifted apart? Does your memory stray to a brighter sunny day When I kissed you and called you sweetheart? Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare? Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there? Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again? Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight? Newton, I wonder if you're lonesome tonight You know someone said that the world's a stage And each must play a part. Fate had me playing in love you as my sweet heart. Act one was when we met, I loved you at first glance You read your line so cleverly and never missed a cue Then came act two, you seemed to change and you acted strange And why I'll never know. Honey, you lied when you said you loved me And I had no cause to doubt you. But I'd rather go on hearing your lies Than go on living without you. Now the stage is bare and I'm standing there With emptiness all around And if you won't come back to me Then make them bring the curtain down. Is your heart filled with pain, shall I come back again? Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?
