The Cell Song
I went into a cell, to get out of the rain, And there was the gatekeeper, the cell membrane. I went into a cell, and what did I see? The mitochondria, it's the energy factory. I went into a cell, and said 'who drives this bus?' And found myself talking to the boss, the nucleus. I went into a cell, to recover from a spasm, And found myself swimming in some clear cytoplasm.
I went into the nucleus to ask how to get home, And got genetic info, stored in a chromosome. I went into a cell, and stretching o' so far, Was a thin and wavy network, it's called the E.R. I went into a cell, trying not to be perplexed, By the packaging and sorting in the Golgi complex. I went into a cell, and said 'who makes proteins here?' And somebody responded 'it's the ribosome, my dear.' I went into a cell, and was feeling pretty fine, Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com 'Til a lysosome engulfed me, and dissolved me in enzymes. I went into a cell, and was feeling pretty nimble, 'Til a centriole lassoed me, tying me up in a spindle.
I went into a plant cell to see how trees get so tall, And all around the outside was a rigid cell wall. I went into a plant cell, 'why's it so green I asked?' ''Cause I make food from sunlight,' said a green chloroplast. I went into a plant cell to see how plant cells store food, When a vacuole informed me that he was the storage dude.
So when you go inside a cell, remember what you see, There's over a trillion cells in both you and me. Just sing this song if you ever feel confusion, And remember active transport is the opposite of diffusion.
