lyrics

Existence, the physical universe is basically playful.
There is no necessity for it what so ever.
It isn’t going anywheres, that is to say.
It doesn’t have a destination that it ought to arrive at.
But that it is best understood by analogy with music.
Because music, as an art form is essentially playful
Why?

Music Differs from say travel, when you travel you are trying to get somewheres.
One doesn’t make the end of a composition, the point.
If that were so, the best conductors would be those who played the fastest.
And there would be composers who wrote only finales.
People would go to concerts just to hear one crashing chord,
Because that’s the end.

And you don’t feel very Different from what you felt.
Because we’ve simply cheated ourselves the whole way down the line.
We though of life by analogy with a journey, with a pilgrimage.
Which had a serious purpose at the end, the thing was to get to that end.
Success or what ever it is, maybe heaven after you’re dead.
But, we missed the point the whole way along.
It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing or to dance while the music
Was being played
