Quantum Dance

Imagine two tiny sparks of light Born in the same flash, burning so bright One shoots to the left, one shoots to the right Soaring apart through the day and the night There's no string between them, no signal they send But they're linked like a story that never will end A cosmic connection, a singular friend A rule of the universe they cannot bend It's quantum entanglement, a mysterious art Two particles acting like one single heart

If you measure the first one, you instantly know The state of the second, wherever it goes Einstein called it spooky, a ghostly advance Connected forever in a quantum dance Let's say one is spinning, we'll call its spin 'up' Like bubbles rising inside of a cup You look at its twin, and without a hiccup You know it's 'down', 'cause their fates overlap It's not information that's traveling fast That's a classical notion, a thing of the past

The question was answered before it was asked A bond that was forged and was destined to last It's quantum entanglement, a mysterious art Two particles acting like one single heart If you measure the first one, you instantly know The state of the second, wherever it goes Einstein called it spooky, a ghostly advance Connected forever in a quantum dance 'Spooky action at a distance,' a great mind once said A beautiful puzzle that messes with your head

It’s the future of code, computers brand new A secret the universe is sharing with you It's strange, and it's weird, and it breaks all the rules It’s one of nature's most powerful tools It's quantum entanglement, a mysterious art Two particles acting like one single heart If you measure the first one, you instantly know The state of the second, wherever it goes Einstein called it spooky, a ghostly advance Connected forever in a quantum dance
