I know this may sound crazy But Black Holes aren't that scary Uh-oh Uh-oh Uh-oh Uh-oh-oh oh Why is everybody scared of Black Holes? I know this may sound crazy But Black Holes aren't that scary [VERSE 2] Don't worry, Black Holes aren't evil They don't mean to destroy planets or people You've been watching too many sci fi movies When you learn about them black holes aren't scary Earth's gravity keeps us all on the ground The Sun's gravity makes the planets go around Black hole gravity is pretty much the same Trade one for the sun and the everything remains Event Horizon is what you have to worry about Once you reach it, there's no way you're coming out It's like scorpion is on the other side And trust me you don't want to fall inside If you fall inside, you would definitely die Your body would be stretched & spaghettified That's the term for Death by Black Hole Sounds like a deadly awesome cosmic pasta bowl, in space [Hook] Uh-oh Uh-oh Uh-oh Uh-oh-oh oh Why is everybody scared of Black Holes? I know this may sound crazy But Black Holes aren't that scary Uh-oh Uh-oh Uh-oh Uh-oh-oh oh Why is everybody scared of Black Holes?
