Platetontics – Lyrics

Lyrics – Platetetonics

By: Daniel Joseph Duey

Verse 1
Platetonics states that the Earth is separated in plates
and they move, I’ll tell you how they do, tell you what they
turn into but first review what you should of already learned
in the sixth grade. The Earth contains a crust, mantle, core, the
lithosphere is the plate, which is made above the crust and upper
mantle, true.. It sits on top of liquid like asthenosphere that makes it
move. Last two things you need to know is a must,
the difference between Oceanic and the Continental crust. Oceanic
crust is underlining the ocean, Continental is the land we live
on across the globe and get this, Continental is thick, Oceanic is thin.
The Oceanic crust is more dense, which means it’s heavier then.

Chorus 1
Platetonics states that the Earth is separated in plates
and they move, I’ll show you how they move, they move
Repeat 2x

Verse 2
Evidence suggest that a couple of hundred million years in the past
a super continent made up the Earth called Pangea. A big land mass
split in half changing the Earth’s surface like new furniture you would
buy at Ikea. Now, how can that be cuz? The Earth’s change was
made from different plate boundaries cuz. Three that I’m going to
speak of divergent, convergent, the third is transform fault.
First three best believe Mr. D teach you what you need to be taught about

Chorus 2
Platetonics states that the Earth is separated in plates
and they move, I’ll show you how they move, they move
Repeat 2x

Verse 3
Divergent boundaries create a rip, plates separate, split, little bit by little bit.
Like the Mid-Atlantic ridge. Converging is the opposite, convergent boundaries
hit divergent divide, converging connects remember this, then it’s land form
fault boundaries, plats they slide horizontally, Earthquakes come from it
obviously with the plate change yeah that’s all the three.
Honestly it’s not complicated like trigonometry, it’s platetonic boundaries
play this and write them down for me to see.

Chorus 3
Platetonics states that the Earth is separated in plates
and they move, I’ll show you how they move, they move
Repeat 2x
