Chorus:
Evidence and inference, you’ve got to know the difference
We need them both for what we do, but we cannot confuse the two

Evidence – it’s just the cold hard facts
Evidence – only your observations
Evidence – what you see, hear, or feel
Evidence - you’ve got to keep it real

Chorus:
Evidence and inference, you’ve got to know the difference
We need them both for what we do, but we cannot confuse the two

Inference – what you think your data means
Inference – it’s your interpretation
Inference – backed up by the facts you’ve seen
Inference – we’ll see if scientists agree

Chorus:

Inferences can lead to science discoveries
But only if they’re tested.....
.....

Chorus:
Evidence and inference and now we know the difference
We need them both for what we do and we will not confuse the two
