There's a little black spot on the sun today
The planet was not there yesterday
There's a black hole somewhere out in space
There's a flag pole observatory place

I have come to find out astromony is fun
With the world turning circles going 'round the sun
I guess I'm always hoping to point my scope at Mars
But it's my destiny to go and look at stars

There's a little black spot on the sun today
Venus is up there
The planet was not there yesterday
Venus is up there
There's a black hole somewhere out in space
Venus is up there
There's a flag pole observatory place
Venus is up there

I have come to find out astromony is fun
With the world turning circles going 'round the sun
I guess I'm always hoping to point my scope at Mars
But it's my destiny to go and look at stars

In the eastern US, see it at sunrise
Venus is up there
Get a good solar filter to protect your eyes
Venus is up there
If you don't get to see it, there's no need for tears
Venus is up there
It will happen again, but you must wait eight years
Venus is up there

I have come to find out astromony is fun
With the world turning circles going 'round the sun
I guess I'm always hoping to point my scope at Mars
But it's my destiny to go and look at stars

There's a comet that's falling from the Kuiper belt
There's an atmosphere so hot that lead would melt
There's an asteroid orbiting too close to Earth
There's iridium found in a layer of dirt
King of pain

There's a red giant star we call Sirius B
Venus is up there
There are thousands of craters on Mercury
Venus is up there
There's a little black spot on the sun today
The planet was not there yesterday

I have come to find out astromony is fun
With the world turning circles going 'round the sun
I guess I'm always hoping to point my scope at Mars
But it's my destiny to go and look at stars

Look at stars
Look at stars
Look at stars
I'll always go look at stars
