Why Does the Sun Shine? (The Sun Is a Mass of Incandescent Gas)
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
Yo-ho, it's 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 its light, we need its heat
We need its energy
Without the sun, without a doubt
There'd be no you and me
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
Copper, iron, aluminum, on the surface of the sun are all gas
The sun is large
The sun is so large
A million Earths could fit inside
And yet, the sun's just a middle-sized star
The sun is far away
It's about ninety-three million miles away
And that's why it looks so small
But even when it's out of sight
It shines both night and day
The sun gives light, the sun gives heat
The sunlight that we see
The sunlight comes from our own sun's atomic energy
Scientists have found that the sun is a huge atom-crushing machine
The heat and light from the sun are caused by the nuclear reaction
Between hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, 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
A gigantic nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
At a temperature of millions of degrees
Yo-ho, it's 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 its light, we need its heat
We need its energy
Without the sun, without a doubt
There'd be no you and me
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
Copper, iron, aluminum, on the surface of the sun are all gas
The sun is large
The sun is so large
A million Earths could fit inside
And yet, the sun's just a middle-sized star
The sun is far away
It's about ninety-three million miles away
And that's why it looks so small
But even when it's out of sight
It shines both night and day
The sun gives light, the sun gives heat
The sunlight that we see
The sunlight comes from our own sun's atomic energy
Scientists have found that the sun is a huge atom-crushing machine
The heat and light from the sun are caused by the nuclear reaction
Between hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, 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
