In a world defined by curves, [pause]
Where the equator is said to swerve,
A line imagined, pause]
bold and clear,
Separates the hemispheres near.
Round and true,
the stars revolve,
above the stationary earth.
Mysteries it still involves,
From the equator's great expanse,
To the tropics' lively dance.
The graticule, a map of dreams, [pause]
Longitude and latitude schemes, [pause]
A globe or flat,
[pause]
the math's the same,
due to the nautical mile. [pause]
[musical interlude]
[Verse 1]
With latitude and longitudes, [pause]
The stars spin in cosmic moods, [pause]
Calculations precise and pure, [pause]
Reveal a path we all endure.
[Chorus]

The graticule, a map of dreams,
Longitude and latitude schemes,
A globe or flat, the math's the same,
[Verse 2]
A sphere's embrace,
globularist delight,
always calculated and never measured,
But through math and cosmic laws,
We define what nature draws.[pause]
In angles wide [pause]
and radians lean, [pause]
they calculate the equator, [pause]
and pretend to be the navigator, [pause]
who was pretending to be an innovator,[pause]
using a measurement of the rotator,
to claim it was a measurement of the earth.
... [long pause].. shaking my head... [pause]

[Bridge]
As the Sun sails high and low, [pause]
Its speed, [pause] a constant flow,
In the north and southern skies, [pause]
The equator is built upon presuppositions and lies.
[Verse 3]
The graticule, a map of dreams,
Longitude and latitude schemes,
A globe or flat, the math's the same,
In every map, it's just a game. [pause]
Mapping the world with lines and seams,
Connecting places with beams [pause]
Guiding explorers in their themes, [pause]
As they traverse in rhythmic schemes
[Outro]
In a world defined by curves, [pause]
Where the equator spins and swerves,
A line imagined, pause]
bold and clear,
Separates the hemispheres near.
Round and true,
the stars revolve,
above the stationary earth. [fade out]
Mysteries it still involves, [fade out]
From the equator's great expanse,
To the tropics' lively dance.
The graticule, a map of dreams, [fade out]
Longitude and latitude schemes, [fade out]
A globe or flat, the math's the same, [end]
