Over the Earth, continents drift
Attached to structures called plates, they glide
They crawl across this vast sphere
Mountains rise when they collide
The Earth, formed many ages prior

A unified crust and lithosphere
Growing centimeters each year
This layer is in constant motion, it breaks
Slips result in earthquakes as it shakes
