(Schrodinger's Cat on Wikipedia)
A theory was formed just the other day
You put a cat in a box and then you walk away
And there's a Geiger counter that will assay
if there's radioactive decay
and there's a vial full of poison, and it will break
But we won't know the cat's fate yet
You know we're gonna have to wait
The cat's in the box, is it alive or dead?
All these quantum physics are hurting my head
When you gonna open it?
I don't know when,
We'll find out together then
The superposition will end
The universe split just the other day
And the cat died in one world, but it's still okay
in a separate world. But to my dismay,
we don't know which we're in. No, we just can't say.
The multiverse hypothesis clearly states:
while we don't know the cat's fate yet,
the worlds are not overlaid
The cat's in the box, is it alive or dead?
All these quantum physics are hurting my head
When you gonna open it?
I don't know when,
We'll find out together then
The superposition will end
In Copenhagen just the other day
Bohr and Heisenberg had this to say
"It's both alive and dead, concurrently, perhaps
Observing it, will make the wave collapse.
This is possible because of quantum mechanics
It's natural; try to not panic."
The cat's in the box, is it alive or dead?
All these quantum physics are hurting my head
When you gonna open it?
I don't know when,
We'll find out together then
The superposition will end
We've since been defunded, and the box packed away
I tracked down Schrodinger the other day
I said, "I'd like to open it if you don't mind."
He said, "Well, be my guest, but it's a waste of time
You see, the box was a metaphor, and the cat isn't real.
It's a thought experiment, but not real.
Yes, it all felt quite surreal.
I couldn't open the box; it just hurt my head
The cat's alive and dead
It's both alive and dead
The cat's in the box, is it alive or dead?
All these quantum physics are hurting my head
When you gonna open it?
I don't know when,
We'll find out together then
The superposition will end
