lyrics

She studies lunar eclipses, planetary ellipses
In the garden of her home
Observing the weather, compiling the data
To battle the droughts and floods
Devising ancient tools of astronomy
A pioneering drive to comprehend
She says knowledge must reach us equally

I see celestial realms
Spiral galaxies afar
The altitude of the sun and stars

I set my eyes to the sky
And I see what lies beyond
I’ll map the cosmos and try to understand

Astrological tables, parallax calculations
One hundred scientific papers
Binary stellar systems, dark matter existence
She’s logged three hundred thousand stars
She’s the first chief of astronomy
A driving thirst to comprehend
She says science must treat us equally

She’s denied the prize and recognition
Brutalised and dies for her rationalism

I see celestial realms
Spiral galaxies afar
The altitude of the sun and stars

I set my eyes to the sky
And I see what lies beyond
I’ll map the cosmos and try to understand

I see celestial realms
Spiral galaxies afar
The altitude of the sun and stars

I set my eyes to the sky
And I see what lies beyond
We’ll map the cosmos and try to understand
