Whilst pondering the lack of (decent) astronomically themed songs, well except for "Super Massive Hole" of course.
I was wondering if it might make teaching this field of science easier in schools, prisons or latrines, or wherever people gather to look up at the stars.
I was thinking of something like "These Boötes are made for walking".
