Yakko: Everybody lives on a street in a cityOr a village or a town for what it's worth.And they're all inside a country which is part of a continentThat sits upon a planet known as Earth.And the Earth is a ball full of oceans and some mountainsWhich is out there spinning silently in space.And living on that Earth are the plants and the animalsAnd also the entire human race.It's a great big universeAnd we're all really punyWe're just tiny little specksAbout the size of Mickey Rooney.It's big and black and inkyAnd we are small and dinkyIt's a big universe and we're not.And we're part of a vast interplanetary systemStretching seven hundred billion miles long.With nine planets and a sun; we think the Earth's the only oneThat has life on it, although we could be wrong.Across the interstellar voids are a billion asteroidsIncluding meteors and Halley's Comet too.And there's over fifty moons floating out there like balloonsIn a panoramic trillion-mile view.SongtexteAnd still it's all a speck amid a hundred billion starsIn a galaxy we call the Milky Way.It's sixty thousand trillion miles from one end to the otherAnd still that's just a fraction of the way.'Cause there's a hundred billion galaxies that stretch across the skyFilled with constellations, planets, moons and stars.And still the universe extends to a place that never endsWhich is maybe just inside a little jar!Yakko, Wakko, and Dot:It's a great big universeAnd we're all really punyWe're just tiny little specksAbout the size of Mickey Rooney.Though we don't know how it got hereWe're an important part hereIt's a big universe and it's ours!
