I wanna be Mendeleev, so frickin bad
Discover elements and triads
I want to be on the cover of science magazines
Standing next to Seaborg and Curie
Oh everytime I look up high
Yeah, I would have helium, beryllium, even mendelevium
Periodic table in krypton lights
Yeah, fresh new elements each night
Oh, I swear, the world better prepare For when I am Mendeleev.
Yeah, I would have helium, beryllium, even mendelevium
Everyday lab day, finding rules and trend thangs I'd probably pull a few fourteen hour workdays
Making sure periods, families work in the right way
Arranging elements by atomic weight and valence Yeah you heard it right, that's how he got famous
He was so good that he left spaces for
Germanium, gallium, scandium and more
Listen, he ain't your average Russian guy Looking so fresh he could probly make any girl sigh
Think about it when you walk in Mr. Wood's door.
Oh everytime I look up high
[Whatcha see whatcha see girl]
Periodic table in krypton lights[uh huh uh huh]
Yeah, fresh new elements each night
Oh, I swear, the world better prepare
For when I am Mendeleev.
Ooh oh ooh oh for when I am Mendeleev, Ooh oh ooh oh
Open up to page twelve in your reference book
Come on and take a good look at all of these different periods, groups, and families
And I can teach you all the tricks and things bout
Yeah on the next test day you'll have a trick up your sleeve
Periodic law says properties will repeat
Atomic radius from nuclei to nuclei
Goes up as you go down and to the left
It's the same story for the size of atomic ions
And then we have ionization energy
Which increases up and to the right so orderly You know it's gonna be a similar thing
Which increases up and to the right so orderly You know it's gonna be a similar thing
For electron affinity yeah So put it in the air and sing I wanna be Mendeleev, so frickin bad
So put it in the air and sing I wanna be Mendeleev, so frickin bad
Discover elements and triads I wanna be on the cover of science magazines
Discover elements and triads I wanna be on the cover of science magazines
Yeah, fresh new elements each night
Oh, I swear, the world better prepare [for what] For when I am Mendeleev.
Ooh oh ooh oh [yeah] for when I am Mendeleev, Ooh oh ooh oh for when I am Mendeleev.
