about

The second track from the album is the story of the planet who believed she was a star, only to find out that she was actually trapped in an orbit not of her making. The song was written after Ebony read an article in New Scientist magazine, about a discovery of gas clouds in space that were behaving more like stars.

lyrics

Once there was a planet
who believed she was a star.
What an embarrassing mistake to make.

She'd been floating around,
being shiny and loud
till she bobbed past The sun
and did a d-double take.

Turns out, she was in his orbit.
And not only that,
there were satellites starting to land
on her back.

And so this little planet
who believed she was a star
had a sudden and very rude awakening.

She'd been floating around,
being shiny and loud,
till she realised she was
part of The Solar System.

If only she'd not been so distracted
by the lights of The Milky Way.
And the vastness of Space
well it made her heart race
and she thought she was free
to do as she pleased.

But turns out, she was in his orbit.
And not only that...
There were satellites starting to land
on her back.
To discover the origins of
her life-giving gas.
So that they could go back home
and do some more math.
