Yakko's Big Song

 Not long ago we didn't know if we were all alone

Was there a dearth of other earths in the habitable zone?

Then the Kepler Telescope found new hope in the Milky Way

So why not try a cosmic sky for your next holiday?

In fact there's one that's super fun just a few light years away

Where one full year will disappear in 4.2 Earth days

So if there's only one place you've got space and time to see

Then be astounded by the first we found, it's Planet Pegasi 51-B!

But... before you go, you ought to know, it's kind of tough to get around

Because the planet's really gassy- there's no land or solid ground

Clouds of methane meet sulfuric rain, and when those are combined

The air that you'll be breathing there will smell like gas of another kind

Gas, no good? Alright, gas isn't everyone's cup of tea.

That's fine. But what about one with aliens?

Lady and gentle-boy, I give you Kepler-186F!

Okay, I jest, I kinda guessed whether E.T.s are alive

But this hip spot has got the lot for aliens to live and thrive

If there's water here, it's crystal clear, and not too hot or cold

And it may contain amazing veins of pure and flawless gold!

But... its sun is dying and amplifying all the harmful cosmic rays

And the planet's visage is forever barraged with all these brutal gamma waves

If any E.T.s were alive, none would survive the radiation

So it'd be astute to pack a hazmat suit for this hot new destination

Okay, so the radiation's also a deal breaker, is it? Okay, well, it's good to know.

Hmm... alright, I got it!

And at lucky last, you can't look past this place that shouldn't be missed

It's always sunny, there's magic puppies, and homework doesn't exist

The sailing's dandy, the ocean's candy, you can fly a broom

But do not fear because the atmosphere will smell like sweet perfume

And astronomers claim that video games have been built into every crater

Why not play Asteroids all day and order pizza from an alien waiter?

Or try a shopping spree 'cause everything is free, and bedtime's not till 11

WB-1, the home of fun

Well, come to cosmic heaven!
