A Stardust Song
What if you were stardust,
And what if I were, too?
Would you sing me a stardust song
If I sang one to you?
What if the earth were round,
And the Milky Way were flat,
And orbits were elliptical?
Now, what would you think of that?
What if you and horny toads
Both had DNA,
And what if you were relatives?
Then, what would you say?
What if dinosaurs laid eggs
And some of them had wings,
And what if they had gizzard stones?
Could you believe such things?
What if everything that is
Were once a tiny dot —
Stars, you, me — everything,
Would that be wild or not?
What if you were stardust,
And what if I were, too?
Would you sing me a stardust song
If I sang one to you?
