lyrics

When you are brand new your eyes are wide
Each day you’re growing, your cells divide
Metabolizing the energy
You’re made of matter and you matter to me

I’ll try to teach you what you need to know
Give you the care that you need to grow
You’re growing every day, it’s fascinating to see
You’re made of matter and you matter to me

Sometimes you might be sad or lonely
Somedays you laugh and some days you cry
But even in the hardest moments
It’s wonderful that you’re alive

And when the sun shines you run and play
Or in the night time after a busy day
You are a marvel of biology
You’re made of matter and you matter to me

I’ll give you food you may not always like
I’ll give you guidance, I may not always be right
I’ll give you love times infinity
You’re made of matter and you matter to me

As you get older, you continue to change
Each day the world seems a little less strange
I hope you’re always fascinated by the mystery
You’re made of matter and you matter to me

Sometimes you might be sad or lonely
Somedays you laugh and some days you cry
But even in the hardest moments
It’s wonderful that you're alive

And when the sun shines you run and play
Or in the night time after a busy day
You are a marvel of chemistry
You’re made of matter and you matter to me

But even in the hardest moments
It’s wonderful to be alive

And if the sun shines you run and play
Or in the night time after a busy day
I hope you’re always fascinated by the mystery
Cuz it’s a marvel just to be a human being
You’re made of matter and you matter to me

Dr G is a theremin-playing space geek on a mission to spread the word about science! Merging hooky new wave beats with lyrics explaining science and the natural universe – think Talking Heads fronted by Bill Nye the Science Guy – Dr G creates a sound that is utterly unique, and as educational as it is infectious. ... more
