TUNESMITH TUESDAY - "It's a Great Big Universe" by the Animaniacs

It's a Great Big Universe

Yakko:

Everybody lives on a street in a city

Or a village or a town for what it's worth

And they're all inside a country 

Which is part of a continent

That sits upon a planet known as Earth

And the Earth is a ball 

Full of oceans and some mountains

Which is out there spinning silently in space

And living on that Earth 

Are the plants and the animals

And also the entire human race

It's a great big universe

And we're all really puny

We're just tiny little specks

About the size of Mickey Rooney

It's big and black and inky

And we are small and dinky

It's a big universe and we're not

And we're part of a vast interplanetary system

Stretching seven hundred billion miles long

With nine planets and a sun; 

We think the Earth's the only one

That has life on it, although we could be wrong

Across the interstellar voids 

Are a billion asteroids

Including meteors and Halley's Comet too

And there's over fifty moons 

Floating out there like balloons

In a panoramic trillion-mile view

And still it's all a speck amid a hundred billion stars

In a galaxy we call the Milky Way

It's sixty thousand trillion miles

From one end to the other

And still that's just a fraction of the way

Cause there's a hundred billion galaxies 

That stretch across the sky

Filled with constellations, planets, moons and stars

And still the universe extends 

To a place that never ends

Which is maybe just inside a little jar!

Yakko, Wakko, and Dot: 

It's a great big universe

And we're all really puny

We're just tiny little specks

About the size of Mickey Rooney

* Though we don't know how it got here

* We're an important part here

* It's a big universe and it's ours!
