I have rewritten the Animaniacs "Planets" song!

[shinyhappygoth]

The original:

Yakko: It's time to tour the planets that make up our solar system. Come on!

The closest to the sun
Is the planet Mercury

Next the shrouded planet Venus
Is as cloudy as can be

The Earth is next, we call it home
Let's hope it stays that way

And then there's Mars, it's really red
What more can I say?

The gassy planet Jupiter's
As big as planets come

Then there's Saturn with its mighty rings
Made up of tiny crumbs

We travel on to Neptune
That's a gassy, freezy ball

And cold and tiny Pluto
It's the furthest one of all!

Well, there you go! That's our solar system.
Wakko: You forgot Uranus.
Yakko: Gooood night, everybody!


My version:

Yakko: It's time to tour the planets that make up our solar system. Come on!

The closest to the sun
Is the planet Mercury

Next the shrouded planet Venus
Is as cloudy as can be

The Earth is next, we call it home
Let's hope it stays that way

And then there's Mars, it's really red
What more can I say?

The gassy planet Jupiter's
As big as planets come

Then there's Saturn with its mighty rings
Made up of tiny crumbs

Far Uranus spins sideways
But its north pole's still on top

And Neptune's lots of freezing gas
And that is where we stop!

Wakko: I thought it was pronounced UrAYnus.
Dot: Please let's not go there.

I like this one with Jonathan Coulton's offering.

Oh yes, I have that and most of his other songs as well (since being introduced to his works at NarboniCon). Lovely song, entertaining concept.

Also, your icon is a happy.

It is an icon by ironychan. She does good work, doesn't she?

[shinyhappygoth]

Yes, she does.
