The R.B.D. Song o' the Day | Galaxy of Horrors

They Might Be Giants, "Why Does the Sun Really Shine?" from Here Comes Science (Space Cadet Mike Papa Whiskey)

Commentary:
"The Sun is a miasma
Of incandescent plasma,
The Sun's not simply made out of gas,
No, no, no.
The Sun is a quagmire,
It's not made of fire,
Forget what you've been told in the past.

"Plasma!
Electrons were free,
Plasma!
A fourth state of matter,
Not gas, not liquid, not solid…

"Plasma!
Forget that song,
Plasma!
They got it wrong,
That thesis has been rendered invalid!"
