A Shooting Star Is Not A Star Lyrics

They Might Be Giants A Shooting Star Is Not A Star

A shooting star is not a star
Is not a star at all
A shooting star's a meteor
That's heading for a fall

A shooting star is not a star
Why does it shine so bright?
The friction as it falls through air
Produces heat and light

A shooting star or meteor
Whichever name you like
The minute it comes down to Earth
It's called a meteorite
