Lyrics

One Black Swan
Dave Nachmanoff

CHORUS:
One black swan, one black swan
When everything you thought you knew was wrong
You found one black swan

Fuzzy logic, and the fallacies abound
Sacrifice all inference for a single bite of sound
Now the fox is in the hen house
Bloody feathers scattered on the ground

(Chorus)

All these channels, how's a person supposed to choose?
Information saturation and the truth is gonna lose
They're arguing by anecdote
Infotainment filling in for news

(Chorus)

(Solo)

Giordono Bruno, I hope you didn't die in vain
Atavistic tendenices, they're creeping back again
They're celebrating ignorance
And tossing books into the flame

(Chorus 2x)

Everything you thought you knew was wrong
One black swan
