Yes, it's called SELECT.
There is a standard schema called INFORMATION_SCHEMA, which contains a
variety of relevant views.
Notably, you could request:
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES
where table_type='BASE TABLE'
;
if you need tables only otherwise it returns the Views also.
That has the merit of actually conforming to SQL standards...
