METEORWRONG! | Rock Remix

[Verse 1] I found it by the river, thought I struck some cosmic gold Extremely heavy and weathered, suspiciously old Ran a magnet over it, man, it snapped on like a dream Said, “If this thing is real… I’m joinin’ NASA’s team” I got more and more excited when the diamond tester lit Thought I hit the jackpot, yeah, I knew this had to be it Then the lead test came back positive, okay, that’s kinda weird But the mass, volume, density all said, “You’re in the clear” I was feelin’ famous overnight, already tellin’ the tale But the closer we looked, the more it started to fail [Pre-Chorus] Cut it open, acid test, tryin’ every test we could Science tapped me on the shoulder like, “You misunderstood” [Chorus] It wasn’t a meteorite, it was a meteorwrong Yeah, I hyped it up so hard, swear the evidence was strong Once we figured it out and removed all doubt Had to bury the dream, let go of the clout Felt like Joe Dirt, yeah, it kinda hurt Holdin’ my “space rock” while the facts did the work This is my song about my meteorwrong Sing it loud, laugh it off, and keep rockin’ on [Verse 2] Thought I saw a Widmanstätten, thought I cracked the code Diamond tester beepin’ like I struck a motherlode It had sparkle, it had weight, it had a story in my head But not every shiny mystery came down here from space instead Sometimes iron’s just iron, sometimes slag’s just slag Till you know for certain, better not brag [Pre-Chorus] Every scratch, every slice, every theory I made Got stripped down to truth when the data displayed [Chorus] It wasn’t a meteorite, it was a meteorwrong Built a whole damn legend, but it didn’t last long Once we figured it out and removed all doubt Had to bury the dream, let go of the clout Felt like Joe Dirt holdin’ that “space turd” Had me feelin’ real smart, turns out I’m absurd This is my song about my meteorwrong Still out here huntin’, still rockin’ on [Bridge] Next rock, next find, yeah, I’m back in the zone Out here rock houndin’, collectin’ more stone It’s not about the fame, I got nothin’ to prove It’s the thrill of the hunt and the rocks that I move [Final Chorus] Yeah, it wasn’t a meteorite, it was a meteorwrong But I learned more from that than if I’d been right all along Once we figured it out and removed all doubt That’s how truth works, it finds its way out Felt like Joe Dirt, but wiser this time Next rock I find just might actually shine This is my song about my meteorwrong And I ain’t done lookin’, down by the river movin’ along It wasn’t a meteorite, it was a meteorwrong But I learned more from that than if I’d been right all along Once we figured it out and removed all doubt Had to bury the dream, let go of the clout Felt like Joe Dirt, but wiser this time Next rock I find just might actually shine This is my song about my meteorwrong Crank it up loud and keep rockin’ on
