SOLAR SISTEM MUSICAL

PLANETARY   POSSE

PLANETARY   POSSE

Music by Kellee McQuinn and Keith Davis. 

Lyrics by Kellee McQuinn

 HANNAH: Wow. Where am I?  Who are you guys?

CHORUS:

We are the place to be in the Galaxy

The Planetary Posse for everybody to see

We are the place to be in the Galaxy

If you donʼt hang with me

Youʼre just a wanna-be!

SUN

I am the Sun burning bright for everyone

Four million tons of hydrogen turned helium

Itʼs no delusion – itʼs just nuclear fusion

Itʼs been proven that Iʼm always movinʼ

Iʼve got the pull – keepin yʼall in line

Got yaʼ spinning on your axis throughout space and time

Put your hands up in the air to see a solar flare

Cʼmon feel the commotion of this giant explosion!

Heʼs hot (How hot?)

10,000 degrees Heʼs big (How big?) Almost a million miles Heʼs old (How old?)

4 billion years

And if you donʼt believe me, just ask my peers.

We got Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars

Theyʼre my crew along with all the other moons and stars

Thereʼs Jupiter, Saturn and of course Uranus

Heʼs a really nice planet though his name is heinous Donʼt forget Neptune, Pluto and his

dwarfy friends The Universe is cool because it never ends.

Each one of these peeps has got something to say

The most talented troupe in the Milky Way

MERCURY

Yoʼ Iʼm Mercury, you can call me Merc

First planet in line but that donʼt make me a jerk.

Yeah, Iʼm #1, I go around the sun

In just 88 days, I get cold and then I blaze.

Iʼm not tilted or wilted ʻcuz I got no air

Covered with craters so please donʼt stare.

Iʼm rocky and stocky built like a jockey

Smallest of our bunch, made with metals, packed with punch – Yoʼ!

VENUS

V to the E to the N – U – S

Iʼm the hottest and brightest, donʼt be envious

Iʼve got a nickname, itʼs “Morning Star”

And Iʼm covered in clouds that are thick as tar

There are volcanoes all over my surface

Forgive me if Iʼm volatile, itʼs not on purpose

Iʼm the 2nd closet planet to the Sun

If you like sulfuric acid we could have some fun

EARTH

Third is the word, my name is Planet Earth

Iʼm oozing with life, every day I give birth

To plants and people and animals and bugs

Iʼm like a big round mama and I love to give hugs

To the north pole – Whoa! And the south pole – Whoa! To the moon – Whoa!

And the O2 – Whoa!

Iʼm a blue & white marble, floating in space

With jungles, rocks, and oceans and tectonic plates

I got an atmosphere, biosphere, geosphere & hydrosphere

And if thatʼs not enough I even got a cryosphere

8,000 miles wide but I donʼt need a diet

Got lots of gravity, dare you to defy it

Iʼve got summer, winter, spring and fall

If you havenʼt guessed yet – Iʼve got it all!

MARS

ʻSup Iʼm Mars – Iʼm red as rust

Topped with canyons and craters all covered in dust

Got CO2 and H2O

Will people live on me? Wouldnʼt you like to know?

I got 24 hours in my day

And Iʼm a lot like Earth some scientists say

But I own 2 moons and lots of dunes

Cʼmon hit the floor for planet # 4

JUPITER

Iʼm Jupiter and Iʼm really huge

The largest planet, in fact, with 62 moons

Got a Great Red Spot on my face

And Iʼm the fastest spinner if you wanna race

Iʼve got colored bands, a giant made of gas

Thereʼre clouds & storms all over my mass

Takes me 12 years to orbit ʻround the sun

If you jive with # 5 then Iʼm your favorite one.

SATURN

Hey everybody, Iʼm 6th and Iʼm Saturn

I got swirly winds in a stripey pattern

Iʼm pretty famous for my pretty rings

But what I really love to do is dance and sing

With my 62 moons Iʼm never alone

Hydrogen and helium call me their home

My magnetosphere makes a gorgeous aurora

Loop the Sun in 29 years, hope that doesnʼt bore yaʼ

URANUS

Iʼm lucky # 7, Uranus is my name

Living way up in the heavens, got some ice and methane

I like to spin on my side

And in reverse, kick it with a backslide

Iʼm electric and greenish blue

Got lots of seasons and 27 moons

In 84 years Iʼll orbit our Sun

Doing windmills the whole way, poppinʼ, lockinʼ, spinning, spun

NEPTUNE

Yoʼ Iʼm Neptune and Iʼm really far out

Iʼve got a Great Dark Spot, thatʼs nothinʼ to laugh about

Iʼm freezing cold, got methane ice

Iʼm blue as an ocean in paradise

My 13 moons and I like to travel

Plus Iʼve got a few rings made of rocks and gravel

All of my days are not very long

Just 17 hours – almost as long as this song

Iʼm the 8th and last planet out of my homies

165 years from the Sun – it can get kinda lonely

PLUTO & DWARF PLANETS

Hi Iʼm Pluto and Iʼve been demoted

I demand a recount for all who voted

Now Iʼm a dwarf planet hanginʼ in the Kuiper Belt

But I still can jam it, so cool Iʼll never melt

I got 3 moons and a few new pals

Hereʼs the other dwarfs in alphabetical

Thereʼs Ceres, Eris, Haumea & Makemake

Maybe 200 more which is quite a shockaʼ

Iʼm the king of the munchkins but thatʼs alright

Iʼm still a stella fella and Iʼll always shine bright

(Repeat Chorus)
