Catch the Light

Smarty Party! I found a giant diamond! That's a disco ball. It’s still pretty. Ruby red, sapphire blue; Sapphire comes in other colors too. One mineral, corundum, two gem names; Different colors, family the same. Emerald, aquamarine, Morganite joins the beryl team. Green, sea-blue, pink on display— Three beryl beauties lead the way! Catch the light! Turn it round, turn it round! What a little world we found! Red and gold and green and blue— Look a little closer: something new! Some shine softly, some shine bright— Come on, come on, catch the light! Amethyst! Citrine! Rose quartz, too! Three quartz cousins wave hello to you. Purple, yellow, rosy pink— Closer cousins than you think. Diamond's made of carbon; little facets gleam. Kimpy's disco ball rolls through the beam. That giant shiny, shiny thing blocks half the view; The little gems would like a spotlight too! Catch the light! Turn it round, turn it round! What a little world we found! Red and gold and green and blue— Look a little closer: something new! Some shine softly, some shine bright— Come on, come on, catch the light! Garnet and spinel, step into the light; Peridot green, a fresh-lime sight. Topaz, tourmaline—colors in a row; Tanzanite blue-violet joins the show. Alexandrite can change its hue With a different light shining through. Moonstone's shimmer seems to glide; Some opals flash with colors inside. Lift that disco ball up high— Now our little gems can catch your eye! Catch the light, catch the light! Turn it round! What a little world we found! Red and gold and green and blue— Look a little closer: something new! Some shine softly, some shine bright— Come on, come on, catch the light! So, your disco ball isn't a gem. Nope. It's the lighting department. Smarty Party Songs! Like, subscribe, PARTY!
