If we were covalent I’d never let you go.
We could share electrons so our valence would be full.
Baby you want eight, but you need a couple mo’.
Got electrons in my shell that I’d really like to show.
Science… Science… Science… On you.
We could be together, we could be like N2.
Sharin’ electrons. Kinda sticky like glue.
So how many you need, baby? 3? 2?
I’d like to bond covalently,
Hey atom, let me bond with you!
If we shared electrons I’d never let you go!
Our bond would be much stronger, than ionic or dipole.
We could be stable. Our valence would be full.
If we shared electrons, I’d never let you go...
until we react some more.
The thing about sharin’ electrons with me -
The bond’ll be stronger if we share ‘em equally.
If you hog ‘em all, with your negativity
I’ma get a partial charge, and be gettin' frisky.
Dipole-dipole: we would have a dipole.
Not quite ionic, but there would be a side show.
Other polar molecules, knockin' on our side door .
Rather keep it nonpolar - hydrocarbon style.

So give me a chance.
Don’t be so electronegative!
I think you’re hoggin’ my trons. Yes in fact I’m pretty positive.
Non-polar covalent bonding would be so grand… yeah…
I Just wanna share my trons with you...

CH-CH-CH-(hydrocarbons!)
