WHAT IS A SHOOTING STAR?
Verse 1:
A shooting star is not a star
It’s not a star at all
A shooting star’s a meteor
A rock from space that falls.
Verse 2:
A shooting star is not a star
Why does it shine so bright?
The friction as it falls through air Produces heat and light
Verse 3:
A shooting star, or meteor Whichever name you like
The minute it comes down to Earth It’s called a meteorite
