And that's the way it happened, Thanks to a mechanical handshake
350 miles up in space, A billion dollar piece
of space junk Was transformed

and a banker, A banker who helped
rebuild san francisco And offered a loan
to a startup company, A startup technology company
that designed electronics For a space agency, A space agency that went looking
for redemption with a telescope, A telescope that allowed us
to look back at the big bang, Or something pretty close to it
