Kids Learning Tube - Moon Song Lyrics

[Chorus]
I'm the Moon, Earth’s natural satellite
I rotate the same speed as the Earth and I'm a natural source of light
I'm the Moon, my appearance is gray and white
You only see one half of my surface whether it’s day or night

[Verse 1]
It's believed I was created 4.5 billion years ago
When a Mars-sized body collided with Earth, their debris formed me real slow
Meteors, asteroids, and comets struck my surface for a billion years
Due to the fact that they don't burn up in my thin atmosphere
If you wonder what a moon is, it's a natural satellite
One that orbits a single planet, the planet orbits a star so bright
Scientific observations were first made in 1610
By Galileo Galilei, the astronomer Italian

[Chorus]
I'm the Moon, Earth's natural satellite
I rotate the same speed as the Earth and I'm a natural source of light
I'm the Moon, my appearance is gray and white
You only see one half of my surface whether it’s day or night

[Verse 2]
When the Earth spins on its axis, ocean levels stay the same
Then the Moon’s gravitational pull creates the tides that we see change
Two hundred thirty-eight thousand, nine hundred miles from the Earth
Is the distance measured when the first spaceship landed on my turf
The reason you see one half of my surface all the time
Is because my rotation's the same speed as the Earth, taught in this rhyme
It takes twenty-seven Earth days for me to rotate once around
There is no air on my surface, so you won’t hear any sound
[Chorus]
I'm the Moon, Earth's natural satellite
I rotate the same speed as the Earth and I'm a natural source of light
I’m the Moon, my appearance is gray and white
You only see one half of my surface whether it's day or night
