lyrics

The sun is 4 and a half billion years old
Like your grandma’s grandma’s grandma or so I’m told
It’s gigantic, bigger than our planet by a million times
So put on your sunglasses it’s about to get bright

The atmosphere is composed of three layers:
the photosphere, the chromosphere and the corona
And I’m telling you, son, these three layers are hot
It’s like a 15 million degree cup of hot chocolate

The sun is the star
That keeps us warm
It’s so essential to life
It keeps us alive

Its ¾ hydrogen and the rest is helium
And it’s not unique in fact it’s one in a trillion
Which means there must be other stars out in the sky
That could sustain alien life and warm apple pie

Without solar winds there would be no weather
It’s more than 1,000,000 km in diameter
It takes a quarter trillion years for a galaxy orbit
This yellow dwarf star is real legit

The sun is the star
That keeps us warm
It’s so essential to life
It keeps us alive
