A Shooting Star Is Not A Star Lyrics - They Might Be Giants

A shooting star is not a star 

Is not a star at all 

A shooting star's a meteor 

That's heading for a fall 

A shooting star is not a star 

Why does it shine so bright? 

The friction as it falls through air 

Produces heat and light 

A shooting star or meteor 

Whichever name you like 

The minute it comes down to Earth 

It's called a meteorite
