They Might Be Giants The Sun
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
A gigantic nuclear furnace,
Where hydrogen is built into helium,
At a temperature of millions of degrees.
The sun is hot,
The sun is not,
A place where we could live,
But here on Earth there'd be no life,
Without the light it gives.
We need it's light,
We need it's heat,
The sunlight that we see,
The sunlight comes from our own suns,
Atomic energy.
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
A gigantic nuclear furnace,
Where hydrogen is built into helium,
At a temperature of millions of degrees.
The sun is hot,
The sun is so hot that everything on it is a gas,
Aluminum, copper, iron, and many others,
The sun is large,
If the sun were hollow a million earths would fit inside,
And yet,
It is only a middle sized star.
The sun is far away,
About 93 million miles away!
And thats why it looks so small,
But even when its out of sight,
The sun shines night and day.
We need it's light,
We need it's heat,
The sunlight that we see,
The sunlight comes from our own suns,
Atomic energy.
Scientists have found that the sun,
Is a huge atom smashing machine,
The heat and light of the sun are caused,
By the nuclear reactions between,
Hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon and helium.
The sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
A gigantic nuclear furnace,
Where hydrogen is built into helium,
At a temperature of millions of degrees.
The sun, ladies and gentlemen!
