Standard (EADGBE)

BWithin every little cell thaEt's in all of us

Is a F♯tiny little thing called the Bnucleus

But it's the sBtuff inside that really cEaused a fuss

Cause it's the F♯stuff that tells our bodies how to Egrow into us

It's a Bvery long complicated Emolecule

But for sF♯omething so small it's very Binfluential

It can Bmake you grow big and Estrong and tall

Or F♯if it's like mine it makes you Ehairy and small

It's BDNA EDNA

TF♯hree little letters with a lEot to say

BDeoxy ribEo nucleic F♯acid

Yeah that's BDNA

It comes in little packets called chromosomes

You get half from your Daddy and half from your mum

It's a double helix ladder with a code made from

Paired amino acids and it's very long

Well the adenine pairs with the thymine

And the guanine pairs with the cytosine

And when you've got enough pairs you've got a gene

That can tell a cell how to make a protein

It's DNA DNA

Three little letters with a lot to say

Deoxy ribo nucleic acid

Yeah that's DNA

Every time a cell divides it makes a replication

But every now and then there is a mutation

And the mutation can cause an innovation

And that might make a situation

Like a baby being born with eleven toes

Or a blood disease or a massive nose

Don't make babies with your cousin cause you should know

It multiplies the chances that the defects show

It's DNA DNA

Three little letters with a lot to say

Deoxy ribo nucleic acid

Yeah that's DNA

DNA DNA

It could make you crazy it could make you gay

It could make your hair fall all away

It could make it blonde brown blue or grey

DNA DNA

It could make you want to fight or want to prey

It could make you drop down dead today

Woah that's DNA
