Lyrics
We don’t talk about Pluto, no, no, no
We don’t talk about Pluto

It was 2006
We were learning planets
And there were nine of them in the sky
(Nine planets were in the sky!)
Pluto was in
Our system’s orbital spin
(Wonder!)
Our model was looking pretty fly
(and that’s when things go wrong!)

Pluto they said was a pain
(Why the hysteria?)
Went against the IAUs grain
(So they changed the criteria!)
A planet it could not remain!
(I am not okay, but anyway!)

We don’t talk about Pluto, no, no, no
We don’t talk about Pluto

Hey! Pluto’s demotion has left us in a crisis
Ruining all of our mnemonic devices
“My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine…What?! (what, what, what)
Now I’m spending Saturdays hanging out with my son
Writing angry letters to Neil Degrasse Tyson:
“Why do I need science when I’ve got my gut?
You stinky butt?”

Heaven’s renamed
With Pluto’s new class
Couldn’t clear it’s domain
Of comparable mass
Had a long regime
But it’s off the team

We don’t talk about Pluto, no, no, no
We don’t talk about Pluto

This textbook was up-to-date
The next day: wrong! (no, no!)
They said that it was a dwarf planet all along! (no, no!)
And now I’m questioning the moon landing with Neil Armstrong! (No, no!)
This hurts as bad as losing Alderaan!

They told me that we all could agree that the planets would always be nine
Now you tell me, who’s gonna tell Hades, that his planet was forced to resign

Oy vey this isn’t Pluto’s day!

You tell me, when I hear “actually, there’s only eight bodies, considered to be planets!”
I’m just supposed to nod
(Hey this - makes me want to pound the crap out of you)
I’m just supposed to nod!
I’m supposed to nod!

Um, Pluto
Yeah about that Pluto
I need you as a planet, Pluto
Don’t want the truth, I just want you, Pluto!

Oh hey fellas that nutjob’s here
What a winner

[planetarysociety]

Standing ovation! The lyrics, the hilarious and informative visuals — So, so good!

[mikeymikesh]

What’s really hilarious about Pluto being named after the Roman name for hades is that hades was banished from Olympus, just like how Pluto was ultimately “banished” from being a planet. I swear it’s like someone plans this shit.

[amberlynnmullin]

Just remember only 1 planet has said that Pluto isn't so it obviously still is. 8 out of 9 planets agree.

[piratesavvy]

The line "Don't want the truth, I just want you Pluto!" speaks to me on a spiritual level.

[hansoloandleia]

“My very educated mother just served us nine what? What? What?” Makes me laugh every time

[DisneyFanatic]

The kids I babysit don't believe me when I say there used to be NINE planets.
Now I feel old.

[autumn]

Finally, a song addressing our collective trauma of losing Pluto

[AshAshBaby]

as someone who once played pluto in my fourth grade school play about the planets, I felt this in my soul.

[kathleenhatch]

This is brilliant! Now I really want to see one done of "Surface Pressure" about plate tectonics and volcanoes

[MsAnimefan]

I'm glad to see that this generation still seems to take Pluto's loss of its planetary status as a personal offense.

[tbefilms]

honestly, going from a fifth grader knowing that pluto was a planet to a sixth grader who had to COMPLETELY RECONSTRUCT HER UNDERSTANDING OF THE UNIVERSE, this really hits home. RIP Pluto u will always be a planet to me

[kienchenk]

We went to the planetarium last year with "Pluto Never forget 1930-2006", and "Back in my days we had nine planets" t-shirts😂 The staff's reactions were pure gold and solidarity

[kandykitten]

As a diehard advocate for Pluto's planetary status and a fan of "We Don't Talk about Bruno", this was one of the greatest things I've ever seen! Will definitely be checking out your channel!

[thegreenweirdo]

I couldn't tear my eyes away, I was dying of laughter but this is genius

[sushigivesmelife]

I’m surprised you were able to fill an entire song with lyrics about Pluto not being a planet, let alone making the entire song rhyme and flow with a song as lyric heavy as “We Don’t Talk About Bruno”
Really impressive!!!
Super fun

[edwardrhoads]

What most people don't know is that about 200 years ago after its discovery Ceres was considered a planet for a short period of time before it was demoted once it was figured out how small it was and that there a lot of other objects like it.

So, Pluto was not the first, and has good company.

[brewster]

As someone who both works for Disney and has a degree in Astronomy, I feel like this video was made specifically for me. It’s beautiful 😭

[amstorm]

This was pretty good, but the ending with the people circling him and the “not a planet” glass being put together (and the vocals altogether??) MADE THIS! I was dying. 💀👏🏽

[CainoTheWizard]

This parody was well worth having “We don’t talk about Bruno” playing in my brain 24/7 again for the rest of the month

[jaimewongahmee]

Pluto will always be a planet in our hearts
