Man: massive object
Man: massive destruction
Plight at the speed of light

[Verse 1]
How far do you think we are
From the nearest star
(Other than the sun,
Can we make the run?)

[Bridge]
Four slightly more
Light years…
But, I have my fears
So, before we sojourn
We’d better learn

[Chorus]
Consequences
Under those circumstances
As I get fatter…
Will my matter matter?

Quick!
[Break]
How fast can I last?

[Instrumental, Flute Solo]

[Verse 2]
Too far that we are
From the nearest star
(Other than the sun,
Can’t make that run)

[Bridge]
Light years…
Caught in the gears
Relative to relativity
I see, I see
(I see the light)

[Chorus]
Consequences
Under those circumstances
As I get fatter…
My matter will splatter

Quick!
[Break]
Slow down
(Down, down, down, down)

[Instrumental, Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 3]
That far, we’ll mare
From star to the nearest star
(Other than the sun,
We’d come undone)

[Bridge]
Light years…
Caught in the gears
Relative to relativity
I see, I see
(I see the light)

[Chorus]
Consequences
Under those circumstances
As I get fatter…
My matter will splatter

Quick!
[Break]
Slow down
(Down, down, down, down)

A SCIENCE NOTE
What would the consequences of a human reaching the speed of light be?
The energy required to accelerate a massive object to the speed of light would likely have catastrophic effects on the surrounding environment, potentially causing massive destruction.

The closest star, Proxima Centauri, is approximately 4.2 to 4.4 light years away. Therefore, we do not recommend making a run there at the speed of light.

If you were to somehow sit on Saturn…
What would you learn?

[Verse]
Lately, I’ve been spacing out (far out)
Thinking about spacing out (far out)
Sitting on Saturn, what would I learn?

[Bridge]
I’m just sayin’
Would you like to weigh in

[Instrumental, Synthesizer Solo, Drum Fills]

[Chorus]
Dying trying to sit on Saturn
Would I start to notice
Some sort-of pattern
Dying, trying to have sat (on Saturn)
[Break]
Will I ever learn?

[Vocal Rap]
If I were to somehow sit on Saturn…
What would I learn?

[Instrumental, Sub-bass, Bass Solo]

[Verse]
I fear
Descending through the thick atmosphere
Under pressure, for sure
Can’t measure the temperature
I mean soooo extreme

[Bridge]
Crushed (Hushed)
Incinerated
That hurts
And they don’t even offer me a seat
That’s beat

Dying trying to sit on Saturn
[Break]
Will I ever learn?

[Outro]
Sat, learned

[End]

A NOTE ON SCIENCE
What would happen to me if I sat on Saturn?

If you were to somehow sit on Saturn, you’d experience a rather surreal and potentially deadly environment. Saturn is a gas giant, so it doesn’t have a solid surface like Earth. Instead, it’s composed mainly of hydrogen and helium gas, with swirling bands of clouds and intense storms.

If you were able to descend through Saturn’s thick atmosphere, you’d encounter increasing pressure and temperatures as you descended deeper. Eventually, the pressure and temperature would become so extreme that any human or spacecraft would be crushed and incinerated long before reaching any hypothetical solid core (if one exists).

So, while Saturn’s mesmerizing appearance from afar might seem inviting, getting too close would be a perilous endeavor indeed.

Are you in a coma
Or do you have Cholesteatoma?

[Verse 1]
Jeez
Do you have some kind of disease
Please
It’s a detriment, seek treatment

[Chorus]
A smelly discharge from your ear
I’m not sure that you can hear
When ever the truth gets near
You’re gripped by fear and jeer
[Break]

But, but butt

[Verse 2]
Are you feeling sick
Or just thick
Are you feeling ill
Or just shrill swill

A SCIENCE NOTE
This song uses medical metaphors to convey the idea of being in denial or oblivious to a problem, which can be applied to climate change denial. The reference to “coma” and “Cholesteatoma” suggests a state of being unaware or unresponsive to a serious issue.

A SCIENCE LESSON
The darkening of the sky before a storm is primarily due to the thickening of clouds as the storm approaches. Clouds block sunlight, reducing the amount of light that reaches the Earth’s surface. As more clouds accumulate and become denser, they absorb and scatter even more sunlight, leading to a decrease in overall brightness and a darkening of the sky. Additionally, the presence of moisture and particles in the atmosphere can also contribute to the scattering and absorption of light, further intensifying the darkening effect.

A SCIENCE LESSON
Why are there so many shades of sky blue?

The vast array of shades of sky blue arises from various factors such as atmospheric conditions, sunlight scattering, and the observer’s location and perspective. These factors interact with the Earth’s atmosphere, which consists of gases, particles, and other elements that can affect the way sunlight is scattered and absorbed. Different times of the day, weather conditions, and geographical locations can contribute to the diversity of hues observed in the sky, ranging from pale baby blue to deep azure. Additionally, human perception and cultural interpretations also influence how we perceive and categorize different shades of sky blue.
