Beach Boys - Solar System Lyrics

If you know anything about Brian Wilson, he loves astronomy, so this is just a 100 percent honest song about what he gives a shit about. Part of his charm for me is his soul is always on display in his music.

Great song...

God bless Brian Wilson

kind of sounds like "Let the wind blow"

Better than all of prince's catalog put together

What did people think about this back in the day ???? 🤷🏻‍♂️.
Definitely very oddball, I’ll give it that.

While not the greatest song lyrically, the melody and arrangement is quite brilliant. I'd love to see the backing track of this released, there's a lot of cool chord changes and complex ideas going on.

this song would have been godly during the Smile days but it's great as it is

This is terrible,just being real!

If Mars has life on it
I might find my wife on it

Oompah music for barbershop quartet hippies.

I'm sorry but it is a very terrible song. As much as I enjoyed listening to this album for the past 40 years, it's shit.

@Tom Allen well as much as your opinion stands, i find it to be a very complex song, just remove the vocals and i bet itll sound better. No matter how old it may be, it still is pretty catchy..

I love this song! I find it enjoyable whimsical fun. It is a delicious little cookie, a pretty little gem, a fun little toy...everything doesn't have to be edgy and deep and have some great complex subversive message ... it is just enjoyable little object of art that brings you on a short 3 minute journey of melody. Everyone 's taste is different but when this song comes up when I'm listening to my playlists on shuffle I turn up the volume and get a pleasurable shot of dopamine released in my brain.

you morons listen to rap and give them awards... your thoughts are literally shit

This is alot better than any rap. If you don't find this at all good sounding you should get some help

Don’t do drugs

far out

I love the words 😄👍
Would be great as a poetry performance piece.

This is an art song.

Solar System
The Beach Boys

What do the planets mean?
And have you ever seen Sunrise in the morn?
It shined when you were born
Saturn has rings all around it
I searched the sky and I found it

[Chorus]
Solar system
Brings us wisdom

Then there's the Milky Way
That's where the angels play
You've seen the lover's moon, looks good in the month of June
Neptune is god of the sea-ea-ea (c)
Pluto is too far to see (c)

[Chorus]
Solar system
Brings us wisdom

The constellations are stars that form animals
Leo and Capricorn, too
Star bright, star light
Make this wish come true tonight

If Mars had life on it
I might find my wife on it
Venus the goddess of love
Can thank all the stars above
Mercury's close to the sun
You'll see it when day is done

[Chorus: x2]
Solar system
Brings us wisdom
Solar system
Brings us wisdom

Solar
