The Lyrics
I did detect your presence back in ‘82
Galactic supernova too good to be true
I always wondered: what happened to you?
Oh-a-oh
Then just last year I got a brand new CCD
I could inquire some more with new technology
Then like a lightning bolt the answer came to me
Oh-a-oh
Fusion stagnated
Oh-a-oh
You detonated
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Supergiant Type O Star
Oh-a-a-a-oh
And when your fuel supply of hydrogen did go
Then stopped the outward force that comes with fusion’s glow
And underneath your own weight you implode
Oh-a-oh
You time was over
Oh-a-oh
You supernova
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Outshining the Galaxy, expanding cloud of space debris
Oh-a-a-a-oh
Oh-a-a-a-oh
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Ten million year old Type O Star
A blast to which there is no par
You leave an interstellar scar
Ta-Ta my Giant O Star
Ta-Ta my Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star….
Galactic supernova too good to be true
I always wondered: what happened to you?
Oh-a-oh
Then just last year I got a brand new CCD
I could inquire some more with new technology
Then like a lightning bolt the answer came to me
Oh-a-oh
Fusion stagnated
Oh-a-oh
You detonated
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Supergiant Type O Star
Oh-a-a-a-oh
And when your fuel supply of hydrogen did go
Then stopped the outward force that comes with fusion’s glow
And underneath your own weight you implode
Oh-a-oh
You time was over
Oh-a-oh
You supernova
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Outshining the Galaxy, expanding cloud of space debris
Oh-a-a-a-oh
Oh-a-a-a-oh
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Ten million year old Type O Star
A blast to which there is no par
You leave an interstellar scar
Ta-Ta my Giant O Star
Ta-Ta my Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star
Gravity killed the Giant O Star….

One of my favorite OS's from the early MTV days. This was quite good. 555
Intelligent writing, but with some keen subtle humour, Alex. 555
Your parody has gravitas and humor.
Ha, I love it. Science always does make for good parody material, doesn't it? 555
Bugger! There was another line after interstellar scar should have been "Fusion died and broke your heart"
Cheers folks
Loved the angle. You've inspired me to try my own parodies to help my kids learn science. Great job.
