Chemistry Story

“Chemistry Story”
 

I was quite young when I first heard of you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts:
I’m standing there in a classroom while at school.

See the signs, see the ions, the elements.
See your words up on the whiteboard,
I say, “Hello,”
Little did I know...

That you were chemistry, you were so important,
And I always said, “Someday I will understand you!”
And I was happy in my studies
Learning you, “Teach me more!”
And you went...

Student, learn me with all your heart and soul.
I’ll be sciencing; all that’s left to do is apply.
You’ll be the scientist and I’ll be the nature,
It’s a chemistry story, baby, just learn me.

So I stay up late at night to grasp you.
I think about my future in chem,
Oh what I could do... Change the world with a new idea.
Oh, oh.

And you were chemistry, you were so important,
And I always said, “Someday I will understand you!”
And I was happy in my studies
Learning you, “Teach me more!”
And you went...

Student, learn me with all your heart and soul.
I’ll be sciencing; all that’s left to do is apply.
You’ll be the scientist and I’ll be the nature,
It’s a chemistry story, baby, just learn me.


Chemistry, come with me, I’m going off to college now.
This world is difficult but it’s fun.
Let’s do STEM, we’ll make it into a career.
It’s a chemistry story, baby, teach me more.

Oh, oh.

I went off to college,
And I decided to major in chemistry.
My faith in you was growing,
When I did so well in my first year.
And you said...

Student learn me with all of your heart and soul.
I’ll be sciencing; all that’s left to do is apply.
You’ll be the scientist and I’ll be the nature,
It’s a chemistry story, baby, just learn me.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

And I was quite young when I first heard of you.
