Newton’s Apple (And the Brain We Forgot)

Lyrics
Verse 1
I sat beneath a tree one day,
An apple fell and bounced away,
I didn’t scroll, I didn’t post,
I just observed — like humans most!
Pre-Chorus
One little plop became a thought,
“What pulled it down? What force was caught?”
While others napped or chased a fly,
I asked — and that’s how humans fly!
Chorus
🎶 Curiosity’s the spark,
That lights our minds out of the dark!
Don’t let your brain just rot and sway —
To AI’s feed all night and day!
Discovery needs eyes and soul,
Not thumbs that scroll out of control!
So put that phone down, go explore —
That’s what the apple’s falling for! 🎶
Verse 2
I didn’t ask ChatGPT,
Or let a bot explain to me.
I thought, I stared, I drew a line —
And BAM! I cracked the law divine!
[Bridge] (spoken in mock-techno voice)
🤖 “AI knows everything!”
Oh please, it can’t even taste ice cream.
It doesn’t trip or stub its toe,
Or wonder why the rivers flow.
Chorus – repeat with gusto!
🎶 Curiosity’s the spark,
That lights our minds out of the dark!
Don’t let your brain just rot and sway —
To AI’s feed all night and day!
Exploration’s how we grow,
Not ‘Did you mean?’ from autocomplete show!
So ask, observe, go question more
Just like the apple did before! 🎶
Outro – softly, like a lullaby, then wink:
The apple fell, I didn’t swipe…
I watched, I wondered — changed our type.
So maybe next time that you yawn…
Ask why the stars are still turned on.
