Or even LL Cool J. But he does write boob lyric about astrophysics , and really , how many people can you say that about ? ” The latin regular recurrence of “ Superluminal Love ” are not all that the multi - talented Professor Marscher has to volunteer .
Prof. Marscher is an astrophysicist with a signified of humor and a guitar . He ’s write a serial of strain about physics , some of which he execute during the course of instruction he learn at BU . He even put a lot of them on his website – you’re able to go look into out all his lyric poem , plus listen to mp3s of the tunes asperformed by the Professor himself .
Here are some choice examples of these mad rhymes :
Relatively eldritch
Is it muscularity or multitude ? Well , E = mc2 .
And if it plump really fast , put a da Gamma in there .
Superluminal Lover
Full of twist magnetism , feeling spicy inwardly .
burst forth with vitality , quick for a high - speed ride .
speedup growing , focusing my light beam .
The K starts flowing , plasm shoot downstream .
Stars By the Colors
Red nanus stars , a usual sort , have low luminosity ,
Living for hundreds of billion years in coolheaded namelessness .
Luminous red giant are middle - aged , avoirdupois but not so hot ,
With core group cave in to Earth - like size , hydrogen fuel is shoot .
Another satellite
On Mercury we ’d roast all day & during the nighttime we ’d freeze .
We ’d gasp for air to no help with no atmosphere to catch one’s breath .
On Venus we would suffocate from CO2 gas so dense ,
The glasshouse result would broil our hide , the heat would be so intense .
