Lyrics:

\\n

Dit dah

\\n

Dit dah

\\n

Dit dah

\\n

As in

\\n

Alfred asks a bit of advice from his father

\\n

And anxiously for another few hundred dollars

\\n

\\n

(Dit dah) Dit dah (Dit dah)

\\n

\\n

\\u201cWell son I believe a patient waiter is no loser

\\n

And America believes in cash why disabuse her

\\n

AKA yes here son good luck

\\n

\\n

When you fall

\\n

Fall hard

\\n

Fall forward

\\n

When you fail

\\n

Fail out

\\n

On and up

\\n

Now go fill

\\n

That wire

\\n

With this message

\\n

Attention:

\\n

The Universe\\u201d

\\n

\\n

Thus the future hangs on Vail iron and copper

\\n

Thus the distance possible grows ever greater

\\n

From father\\u2019s heart to Morses code\\u2019s lip\\u2019s

\\n

\\n

"When you fall

\\n

Fall hard

\\n

Fall forward

\\n

\\n

When you fall

\\n

Fall hard

\\n

Fall forward

\\n

When you fail

\\n

Fail out

\\n

On and up

\\n

Now go fill

\\n

That wire

\\n

With this message

\\n

Attention:

\\n

The Universe"
