1. Big bang, hot dang! Abracadabra! Bombs away!

E                                                                                          A

I was just sitting slurping soupy substance, having a nice day,

    A                                                                                                        E                                          

When all of space swarmed in my eyes, and all of time blew out my ears

E                                                                                                  A   E A E A

We’ll have a lot of things to figure out, as soon as the smoke clears.

 

    A                                                                            E                                         

2. Big bang, birth pang!  It’s whelping time, geronimo!

E                                                                                          A

I was just going with the flow when everything began to blow.

    A                                                                                                          E                                         

Then neutrons bounced and gene pools sizzled, and reactions burst in chains

E                                                                                                          A  

We’ll have a lot of things to think about, once we’ve developed brains.

 

                  E               E7                      A                                                                                                 

Bridge 1:  Big bang, tooth and fang!, Dominance! Submission!

 E            E7                   B7          E                                                                                   

No one ever expects the Spanish Inquisition.

                                                                                                             

    A                                                                E                                         

3. Big bang, harange!  The chair recognizes the floor!

E                                                                                                             A  

It has been moved, is there a second?  Do you know who’s keeping score?

 

               E                E7                     A                                                                                                 

Bridge 2:  Big bang, gashouse gang, fusion meshed with fission

 E                     E7                          B7                      E                                                                                   

Ten nine eight seven six five four three two one, ignition!

                                                                                                            

    A                                                                           E                                          

4. Big bang, yin yang, hey here goes nothing, let it be!

E                                                                                        A  

It’s the beginning of the universe, could be the death of me.
