This was one of the earliest songs written for the show, around the same time as Batman But Done Better (I think Batman was written first, but could be wrong) and like that one it was a BREAKTHROUGH for realising how the whole thing was going to go.

I'd been struggling to think how I was going to explain all of this Quite Complicated STUFF to people, and eventually saw that I could use the COMPLICATEDNESS as the HOOK, really leaning into it like one of those Science Explainy songs e.g. that one about the Elements that rhymes Very Cleverly where it's an impressive feat of MEMORY for the person singing it.

The downside of that is that it really did take an impressive feat of memory for someone like ME, with a not very good MEMORY for this sort of thing, to actually MEMORISE, but now it's in there so I find it best just to plough on and try not to distract myself by thinking "COR! I just remembered that verse, now what is the next one ... OH NO!"
