"Science is Real" by They Might Be Giants

Didactic "message" songs aren't really my favorite kind of song, but I'll plug anything for TMBG.

3. It's one in a series.

There's one that goes, "The sun is a mass of incadescent gas that burns at millions of degrees". Then there's "Mamma", which is the only song I know of that manages to work a pretty fair description and exemplification of the order Mammalia into its lyrics (replete with 'monotreme' and 'Allotheria').

This, not their best. "Mammal" isn't bad at all.
