The Sun Song Lyrics
Song by: Matt & Joanna Pace
Lyrics:
Space Voiceover Guy:
A solar system is a star system….
We take a moment to introduce the star of our system…
Our star:
the one and only… Sun!
Sun: I am a yellow dwarf star
There are much bigger stars but they’re out so far
I’m 4.6 billion years old
In the prime of my life, if truth be told
I could fit a million Earths in me
Jupiter: Or a thousand Jupiters!
Sun: My massive gravity
Pulls on planets and asteroids,
Comets and space debris
I am the Sun
The star of your solar system
A nearly-perfect plasma sphere
Made of hydrogen and helium
Heating things up ‘round here!
I am the Sun
I see you out there, Earth
At 150 million kilometers
You’re not too cold or too hot
Since you’re orbiting in the perfect spot
Earth: She’s our life our energy
Allows the food you humans eat
Water, gas, vitamin D
Though at night she’s hard to see
I turn toward her at dawn
\Just don’t look at her too long
Get those sunglasses, sleeves, hats, and
Sunscreen on.
Sun: Big solar flare coming out to you,
You orbit me but I’m moving too
230 million years to go around
Nearly 700 times the speed of sound
Around the Milky Way, and I bring you with
I bet you’ve never felt anything as hot as this
My core’s 15 million Celsius
And that’s hot but it’s in your interest
Earth: I love you, Sun!
Sun: See the light, feel the heat that you get from me
That’s my nuclear fusion energy
Without me there’s no life
I’m a giant ball energy
Sun (and planets): I am the Sun (The Sun!)
The star of your solar system (you’re a star!)
A nearly-perfect plasma sphere (so round!)
Made of hydrogen and helium
Heating things up ‘round here
I am the Sun
