Energy & Me
Potential and Kinetic are the forms of energy
which is which is easy to see
Kinetic is moving, Potential sitting still
energy comes in these two forms, it always will
Energy and Me I use it every day
Energy and Me when I work and when I play
Energy and Me it comes in two forms, do you get it ?
Energy and Me it’s potential or it’s kinetic
Potential energy means energy that’s stored
like the snow on the mountain sitting pretty just before
it melts and makes a raging river that will make the turbines turn
making electricity for lights that help you learn
CHORUS
from many different sources we get our energy
we’re burning oil, coal, gas , splitting atoms for electricity
we capture light in solar panels windmills use the wind
the sun is where most energy on earth begins
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion
like two colliding atoms or the currents of the ocean
legs pumping pedals, it’s hands pulling handles
it’s wind whipping flags, it’s flame burning candles
