lyrics
everyday the sun does rise
and reveals a big surprise
the entire world sees with its eyes
that the sky is blue
well, Rainbow Dash and Super Grover
hang a large blue curtain over
the entire world and hover
for an hour or two
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
but if either’s preoccupied
they’ll light a Bolian’s head with blue light
or sometimes they’ll bring in Bill Nye
and enlarge his blue lab coat
and if they’re having trouble with that
the caterpillar from Wonderland
will get high and lie really flat
while he blows up clouds of smoke
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
some may say
during the day
“The sun’s visible spectrum of matters"
they will lie
and tell you why:
“Earth’s atmosphere causes light to scatter"
but they are wrong
they’ll sing this song:
“Because the waves of blues are shorter
and then we
will mostly see
simply blue waves of the spectrum order"
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
and reveals a big surprise
the entire world sees with its eyes
that the sky is blue
well, Rainbow Dash and Super Grover
hang a large blue curtain over
the entire world and hover
for an hour or two
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
but if either’s preoccupied
they’ll light a Bolian’s head with blue light
or sometimes they’ll bring in Bill Nye
and enlarge his blue lab coat
and if they’re having trouble with that
the caterpillar from Wonderland
will get high and lie really flat
while he blows up clouds of smoke
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
some may say
during the day
“The sun’s visible spectrum of matters"
they will lie
and tell you why:
“Earth’s atmosphere causes light to scatter"
but they are wrong
they’ll sing this song:
“Because the waves of blues are shorter
and then we
will mostly see
simply blue waves of the spectrum order"
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue
that’s why the sky is blue

Adam Sakellarides Los Angeles, California
A native southern-Californian, Adam started writing songs on an old guitar from the 70s that his parents won in a raffle. He sings about love, science, politics, socially awkward people, and things like that. Now armed with witty lyrics, catchy melodies, and a bunch of mediocre jokes, he's ready to entertain you. ... more
