The Brobecks - Globular lyrics
[The Brobecks - Globular lyrics]
On clear nights, another galaxy can be seen
Without a telescope
In the consolation of Andromeda
This neighboring spiral is two million
Two hundred thousand light years distance
It radiates over one billion
Six hundred thousand
Time as much light as the sun
Oh the light, oh the light
Galaxies are usually classified
By their appearance
Irregular systems have no space or form
No symmetry
Like the symmetry of feeling love
Spiral systems resemble huge pinwheels with
Giant arms extending from dense
Central cores dense
Elliptical systems appear round
Or elliptical like the title says
It has no spiral arc
Star clusters are groups of stars
That associate to form
Clusters that can be seen
With the un-aided eye or through a telescope
Open clusters usually have a
Few hundred stars
A few hundred stars to gaze at in the night
A few hundred stars to-
To view, t-to feel, to feel their pain
Globe clusters are much more
Compact than open clusters
Made from tens of thousands of stars
Arranged in a globe like shape
Apparently that one would be globular
Without a telescope
In the consolation of Andromeda
This neighboring spiral is two million
Two hundred thousand light years distance
It radiates over one billion
Six hundred thousand
Time as much light as the sun
Oh the light, oh the light
Galaxies are usually classified
By their appearance
Irregular systems have no space or form
No symmetry
Like the symmetry of feeling love
Spiral systems resemble huge pinwheels with
Giant arms extending from dense
Central cores dense
Elliptical systems appear round
Or elliptical like the title says
It has no spiral arc
Star clusters are groups of stars
That associate to form
Clusters that can be seen
With the un-aided eye or through a telescope
Open clusters usually have a
Few hundred stars
A few hundred stars to gaze at in the night
A few hundred stars to-
To view, t-to feel, to feel their pain
Globe clusters are much more
Compact than open clusters
Made from tens of thousands of stars
Arranged in a globe like shape
Apparently that one would be globular
