Have Dark Forces Been Messing with the Cosmos?

We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point We go round every two hundred million years And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions In this amazing and expanding universe

The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding In all of the directions it can whiz As fast as it can go, the speed of light you know Twelve million miles a minute and that's the fastest speed there is

So remember when you're feeling very small and insecure How amazingly unlikely is your birth And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space Cause there's bugger-all down here on Earth

Faster than that - the universe expands faster than the speed of light, because it's not the matter that is moving away, it is the space itself that grows between.
