What are the words to the 'Nine Planets' song?

Answer 1

There are only 8 major planets and 5 dwarf planets. This song was written before the category of dwarf planet was established:

Planet number one is the closest to the Sun

And Mercury is its name

It's a tiny little spot with a surface that's so hot

And a metal's got a name that's the same

Now planet number two is an easy one to view

And bright as any star you can see

Venus is the same as the goddess with that name

She's a beauty of a planet you'll agree

Planet number three is the place for you and me

It's the planet that we all call home

It's got air and water too, and some land for me and you

Yeah Earth's the place we call our own

Chorus:

We've got nine, we've got nine, nine fine planets

(in the solar system)

We've got nine, we've got nine, nine fine planets

(in the solar system)

The fourth planet from the Sun is a reddish colored one

With two moons to call its own

Night and day's a lot like ours, it's the planet we call Mars

A neighbor pretty close to home

Planet number five is the biggest my oh my

With a big red spot on its face

It's a spinning ball of gas, and it's going round so fast

Yeah, Jupiter's quite a place

Now planet number six has really got some tricks

Saturn is a sight to see

But the really special thing is Saturn's famous rings

A telescopic treat for you and me

Chorus

The seventh planet out makes you want to jump and shout

Uranus is big and blue

It's spinning on its side, there's no way for it to hide

What a strange thing for a planet to do

Planets eight and nine play a game from time to time

Neptune and Pluto like to play

They're so far from the Sun it's hardly noticed by anyone

When they change places along the way

Well I'm glad you came along and joined us in this song

About the planets going round the Sun

Yeah, we went from one to nine, and really made good time

And now our song is almost done

Chorus It is the song that you sing here:

Mercury,Venus and Earth

Mars,Jupiter and Saturn

Uranus,Neptune,Pluto are nine planets

Answer 2
