Because it's hard to develop that capacity on your own
Bruno Pernadas Lyrics

Of the molecular structure of a rock
We shrink it, you might say
Through a microscopic hole board
Through the rock by the L tube
The lyrics of "Because It's Hard to Develop That Capacity on Your Own" by Bruno Pernadas seem to be an abstract and cryptic description of a scientific experiment. The line "it's a temporary alteration of the molecular structure of a rock" suggests that some sort of chemical manipulation is taking place, possibly involving solvents, acids, or other substances that are capable of breaking down the minerals in a rock. The phrase "we shrink it, you might say" suggests that the aim of this experiment is to reduce the size of the rock, perhaps for easier transport or manipulation in a laboratory setting.
The reference to the "microscopic hole board" and the "L tube" adds further detail to this description, suggesting that some sort of sophisticated apparatus is being used to carry out the experiment. It is possible that the "L tube" refers to a type of microfluidic device, which is used to manipulate small volumes of liquid with high precision. Overall, the lyrics of this song seem to be an enigmatic and poetic reflection on the nature of scientific experimentation, and the human drive to explore and understand the world around us.

Well, it's a temporary alteration
Let's start by acknowledging that change is temporary.
Of the molecular structure of a rock
The transformation we're discussing alters the molecular structure of a rock.
We shrink it, you might say
We can describe this transformation as a form of shrinking.
Through a microscopic hole board
This change is achieved by passing the rock through a small, microscopic hole board.
Through the rock by the L tube
More specifically, this hole board is referred to as the L tube, and the rock is passed through it.
