I Want to Look Up, I Want to Look Down
I want to look up,
I want to look down.
I want to see stars,
I want to see towns.
They say they're exclusive,
like pesos and pounds,
But I want to look up,
and I want to look down.
I want to see forward,
I want to see back.
I want to count planets,
I want to count knick-knacks.
Neither option is stable,
and the money may lack,
But I want to see forward,
and I want to see back.
I want to do Archaeology,
I want to do Astronomy.
I want to see evolution,
I want to see galaxies.
I want to major in both,
and yet how could that be?
But I want to do Archaeology,
and I want to do Astonomy.
I want to parallel worlds,
I want to parallel history.
I want to uncover reality,
I want to uncover mysteries.
And here I have found
Archaeoastronomy,
So I can parallel worlds,
and I can parallel history.
