"It's turtles all the way down."

And they're all swaying back and forth going, "Heyyyyy, whoahhhh".

""It's turtles all the way down."
And they're all swaying back and forth going, "Heyyyyy, whoahhhh"."

Yes, but the scale of the universe is so large that we aren't aware of the swaying. It can only be measured by scientists.

As you may know, the earth wobbles a bit in its rotation. We don't notice it, but that turtle that holds the earth up really needs to get it's feet planted better on the turtle that holds the solar system up.

It's a precarious sort of situation. Who knows? Tomorrow, or in a few billion years, Earth's turtle could slip or something, and it'll all be gone. But, that's what makes life interesting. You just never know.
