Go​-​Go Sapien: Pandora's Box

from (PB​:​100) by Popboomerang

about

"This highbrow electro-boogie was inspired by the Greek myth of Pandora and the "observer effect" in Quantum physics.

Like many first women in mythology, Pandora gets a bum rap. She supposedly unleashed all the evils of the world from her (ahem) box.

Thankfully, hope is also at the bottom of the box. Great!

Physicist Brian Greene explains the observer effect as a BOX containing a ball flashing red or blue at random intervals (or something). You won’t know what colour the ball will be until you open the box and there’s no way of proving it could have been otherwise. It's how the world works on a quantum level so wrap your melon around it.

Mainly, I just like saying the word "box". Enjoy!" Will Hindmarsh

lyrics

Don’t be surpsised at what you’ll find inside of Pandora’s box

Ghostly actions at a distance is one instance of them changing the locks

The goal posts moving out of union like an onion such a sweet paradox

There’s something looming in the macroscopic closed confines of Pandora’s box

Well we was just a couple of dumb youg kids

That night we decided to lift up the lid

Don’t pop that bubble there’ll be trouble knock you outta your socks

Observe the probabilities now if you please now keep a watch on that box

Maidens dancing in the phosphorescent crimson hues at the equinox

There’s something moving in the ultraviolet pilot light of this melting pot

Well we was just a couple of dumb youg kids

But now the whole world’s gonna see what we did

Beam me up Scotty-Pop!

It’s getting hot in here... Popboomerang 100 degrees celsius!

I tip my fedora to the lady Pandora

I tweak my moustache to the myths of the past
