lyrics

Dear Thomas Nagel,
I can tell you what it’s like to be a bat: IT’S AWESOME!

(Bb F Gm D#)

I’m chillin’ in caves with my echolocation
Them shadows on the walls ain’t no deception
Objective reality’s so damn rad!
But if you can’t reach it, don’t need to get sad

Just chill with me and my cool bat friends
Abandon your ego; don’t rely on your sense
Spread your wings you never knew you had
Say goodbye to your subjective--once you’ve done it you’ll be glad

Don’t worry about epistemology
The only thing that’s real is what you can('t) see
But I can’t tell you what it’s like to be me
Because I don’t really know.

(I don’t know, I don’t know)
