Artist/Band: They Might Be Giants
Lyrics for Song: What Is a Shooting Star?
Lyrics for Album: Here Comes Science [2009]



A shooting star is not a star

It's 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



A shooting star is not a star

It's not a star at all (a shooting star is not a star)

A shooting star's a meteor (it's not a star at all)

that's heading for a fall (a shooting star's a meteor)

A shooting star is not a star (that's heading for a fall)

Why does it shine so bright? (a shooting star is not a star)

The friction as it falls through air (why does it shine so bright?)

Produces heat and light (the friction as it falls through air)

A shooting star or meteor (produces heat and light)

Whichever name you like (a shooting star, or meteor)

The minute it comes down to Earth (whichever name you like)

It's called a meteorite (the minute it comes down to Earth)

It's called a meteorite
