    Yeah it's pretty clear
    I ain't no science fool
    So you got litmus litmus
    Well I can turn it blue
    Make it go boom boom
    All over the place
    When all the H+ meet all the OH's
    Pink phenolphthalein
    I think that's straight dope
    Mix in a lipid here
    And it'll make it soap
    You want it neutral neutral
    pH is low
    Better set up a titration with a strong hydroxyl drop
    Yeah my lab tech she told me don't worry about your eyes
    If some acid gets in them we just have to neutralize
    You know I love me my stomach and all the things it dissolves
    But my bile duct keeps it from eating my intestine walls
    Because you know
    I'm all about that base
    Bout that base
    No acid
    I'm gonna do the math
    To figure out the ratios to react
    Stoichiometry yeah that's where it's at
    And it'll tell you
    To prepare at least one molar for your strong hydroxyl drop
    Yeah my lab tech she told me don't worry about your eyes
    Cause if acid gets in we can fix it with alkalis
    You know I love me my stomach and all the things it dissolves
    But my bile duct keeps it from eating my intestine walls
    Because you know
    I'm all about that base
    Bout that base
    No acid

    If no one else noticed, bases reacts with indicators to give colours, same colours as the shirts which Tim is wearing.
    Methyl Orange= Yellow with base. (Left)
    Litmus=Blue(center)
    Phenophtalen= Pink (Right)
    *Phenolphthalein got it guys.

    Anyone who listens to the song, and understands any part of it, is not going to be stupid enough to try to neutralize acid in their eyes with a base. They are not going to flunk a test thinking that bile neutralizes stomach acid. It's a song. Enjoy it. Don't nitpick, criticize or try to correct it. Just enjoy the song, or go somewhere else. It was great, it was funny, just enjoy it.

    Just shared this with my grade 5 science class and we had a blast adding new information to our interactive notebook page on acids and bases! Thanks for helping to make science fun! Oh, and I love that you are a fellow Canadian too!

    I'm currently studying chem and there are so few good chem songs to help with memorization/studying. Thanks for making such a great one.
