StoryBots – I’m So Hot Lyrics
According to my calculations, we are now approaching the Sun.
It’s getting pretty hot in here.
I’m so hot, I’m so hot
Check me out, check me out, I’m hot
Yo, Everyone, I’m the Sun
I’m made of gas like Hydrogen and Helium
I keep the Earth warm and help to grow food
I shine down on the beach on guys who say “Dude”
I set into the West and on comes night
And then I rise from the East with that golden light
I’m so hot – so hot – so hot and bright
28 million degrees –
NEPTUNE AND SATURN: Fahrenheit!
I make plants grow, like trees and flowers
so powerful, got that solar power
make the desert dry, make the oceans rise
Don’t stare right at me I can hurt your eyes!
I’m just about a million miles wide
I’m so big, you could fit a million Earths inside
I’m the center of the solar system, can’t ya see
Got so much gravity, planets orbit me!
I’m 4 and a half Billion Years Old
In Spanish, everybody calls me Sol
When I’m not around you’ll be feeling cold
Yeah, I shine so bright with my rays of gold
I’m so hot!
NEPTUNE: So hot!
I’m so hot!
SATURN: So hot!:
Ow! He’s right. He’s really hot!
SUN
Come on Storybots, show me what you got
How hot am I?
So hot!
The Sun is so hot I have to wear these.
(He puts on sunglasses)
Now I’m cool.
(Putting on sunglasses too)
So cool.
Preparing to land our spacecraft on the Moon.
Houston, we have a song.
It’s my time to shine
It’s my time to shine
The day’s over now
So it’s my time to shine
Good evening, it’s the Moon
Here to regale you with a tune
I’m so bright up in the sky at night
But the truth is I’m just reflecting light
See lemme help you break it down
The Earth and I are spinning around
And I orbit the Earth in a loop
EARTH: “You see, the moon is kinda like my hula hoop”
We both orbit the sun; he’s the big shot
THE SUN: “I’m the center of the solar system, I’m so hot”
The sun’s like a lightbulb and I’m like a mirror
Light bounces off me and then it appears
To the Earth below for a lovely view
For animals like wolves who go “Awhooooooo!”
Sometimes I’m full, sometimes half on
Sometimes I’m crescent, or it looks like I’m gone
But I’m here in the dark, just a lonely moon
Hoping that somebody will visit me soon
I’m covered in dust and I’m made of rock
So come see me soon and go on a moonwalk
MOON: It’s my time to shine
It’s my time to shine
Both at day
And at night
We can see the moon shine
MOON: It’s my time to shine
It’s my time to shine
I’m planting this flag on the mountain I climbed. One small step for a StoryBot
One giant leap for Storybotkind
We can see the whole Solar System from here.
I think we can hear it from here too.
We are the planets of the Solar System
Different sizes for every one
The music never ends
We are such good friends
And we all orbit the sun
SUN
Here comes the Sun rapping first on this track, from the beginning
I’m the center of the solar system, planets be spinning
Around me, so hot, I’m roasting, ya see?
Now I pass the mic to the planet closest to me
MERCURY
Mercury! The smallest planet, small as Earth’s moon (MOON: “Yo!”)
I get super hot and cold and I spin very slow
VENUS
I’m Venus! I’ve got mountains and volcanoes that spray
I’m the same size as Earth but spin the opposite way
EARTH
Yeah, I’m Earth, I’m the home to every boy and girl
(Sung by Stars) Such a beautiful, beautiful world
MARS
I’m Mars, the red planet, I’ve got deserts and ice
And I’ve got two moons – nice – that’s like one moon, twice!
JUPITER
I’m Jupiter! the biggest planet, I’m humungous, gargantuan
I spin the fastest, rap the fastest, plus I’m handsome, BAM SON!
SATURN
Oh please, I’m Saturn, check out my beautiful rings
Made up of billions of rocks, dust, and other things
URANUS
I’m Uranus, I say that with pride, okay, I lied
I’m embarrassed ’cause I’m the only planet lying on its side
(Uranus lies on its side and the mic flies to Neptune)
NEPTUNE
I’m Neptune, I’m cold, dark, windy and mysterious
I’m very stormy, so bring an umbrella – I’m serious
ALL PLANETS ()
We’re the planets in the Solar System
Different sizes for every one
The music never ends
We are such good friends
And we all orbit the sun
Well, we are done exploring the Solar System.
I am thirsty. Let’s explore the rest of the Milky Way Galaxy.
We are currently orbiting Planet Earth.
(Listening to headphones attached to controls)
I am picking up some noises… sounds like… cool music…
Such a beautiful… such a beautiful… such a beautiful…
Beautiful world.
EARTH
I’m the Earth, and for what it’s worth
25 thousand miles is my girth
I’ve got more than 7 billion people living on me
All across my amazing geography
Check out my mountains, valleys, trees so tall
And I’ve got lakes, rivers and waterfalls
Volcanoes, craters, swamps with alligators
Tropical islands at my equator
The North and South poles have lots of ice
Only Polar Bears say, “This weather’s nice!”
I’ve got so much land, yeah, I’m so immense
I’ve got 7 – (STORYBOT 2: “Seven!”) – 7 different continents
North and South America, Europe, Asia
Africa, Antarctica, and Australia
But the biggest thing,
Everybody can see
Is that I gotta lotta water, all over me!
I have oceans with lobsters, whales, otters
Three quarters of me is covered in water
I orbit the sun – (THE SUN: “I’m so hot”) – that’s his line
And the moon orbits me – (THE MOON: “It’s my time to shine”)
I’m filled with life, both big and small
The most beautiful planet of all.
Such a beautiful… such a beautiful… such a beautiful…
beautiful world.
It is the home to every boy and girl
It’s a beautiful, beautiful world. I’m getting homesick.
Me too. Computer, take us home.
