Hark the herald theorists sing,
Quantum angels on the wing!
Feel the pull from blackest holes,
Spacetime waves exact their tolls.
 
Joyful all ye peer reviewers,
Theory has no facts to skewer.
With the Nobel chimes in mind,
Will the strings be far behind?
 
CHORUS
Hark the herald theorists sing,
The mind's a weird and wondrous thing!

Spin the glasses theorists sing,
Neural networks' wiring,
Do the math, decode the genome,
Physics never far from home!
 
Electrostactic conversation
Chalks the future in equations,
Sing the symmetries of quarks,
Noisy branes producing sparks!
 
CHORUS
Hark the herald theorists sing,
The mind's a weird and wondrous thing!
