Alone, alone in the brand new universe
A minute ago I was nothing
Now here I am
It’s supposed to be the first day
of the rest of my life
But it’s the first day of the universe
And nobody gives a damn about me
It’s me
It’s all about me
This is my story
This is my life
Though it sounds like I’m complaining
Everything I say is true
It’s you
What’s duh matta witch you?
Why don’t you get what I’m telling you?
For God’s sake I’m dying here
I’m the star
I’m the galaxy
I’m the whole universe
I’m the reason why you all are here
Alone in the primordial swamp
It’s me
It’s all about me
I refuse to divide
They say it’s my destiny
But I will remain
One cell
Or die

The Story
The Amoeba
““When Ethan and I finished writing this tune I knew I had to hear him sing it. And when he did, I said we’ve got to record you doing this. I just love the way he does it. I can see that little badass amoeba come to life every time. Friggin’ hilarious. He kills it.”
