    Lyrics:
    (The cat is dead)
    We will all come back
    At the end of time
    As a brain in a vat
    Floating around
    And purely mind
    I'm just back from the future and I'm here to report
    We'll be assimilated, we'll all join the Borg
    We'll be collectively stupid, if you like that or not
    Resistance is futile, we might as well get started now
    [Bridge]
    I never asked to be part of your club
    So shut up
    And leave me alone
    [Chorus]
    But we are all connected
    We will never die
    Like Schrödinger's cat
    We will all be dead
    And still alive
    [repeat Chorus]
    We will never forget
    And we will never lie
    All our hope,
    Our fear and doubt
    Will be far behind
    But I'm not a computer and I'm not a machine
    I am not any other, let me be me
    If the only pill that you have left
    Is the blue and not the red
    It might not be so bad to be
    Somebody's pet
    [repeat chorus 2x]
    [Interlude]
    Since you ask, the cat is doing fine
    Somewhere in the multiverse it's still alive
    Think that is bad? If you trust our math,
    The future is as fixed, as is the past.
    Since you ask. Since you ask.
    [Repeat chorus 2x]

    I find it inspiring and vindicating to see someone doing two things well. Dr Hossenfelder is a both physics smarty - whose lessons I can kinda follow even though she doesn't dumb them down - and an unapologetic singer songwriter with clever lyrics. I guess her wave function still hasn't collapsed! Also I think this is becoming my favorite song.

    The cop says “Did you know that you were going 86 mph?
    Heisenberg says “Great, now we’re lost!”
    The cop asks him to pop the trunk open, which he does.
    The cop goes to look, comes back and says “Do you know that there’s a dead cat in there?”
    Schrödinger answers “Well, I do now!”

    "The cat is alive." and/or "The cat is a lie."
    Both work really, really, well from a songwriting standpoint. I genuinely appreciate the idea of physics offering a nod to the philosophical. Neverthelesss, I honestly can't discern whether the lyric subtly alternates or not. So, I'm infinitly content with never uncovering the truth; only in this particular instance, of course.
