The Elements - Tom Lehrer[00:00:00]

Now if I may digress momentarily from the mainstream of this[00:00:00]

Evening's symposium [00:00:04]

I'd like to[00:00:05]

Sing a song which is completely pointless [00:00:07]

But is something which I picked up during my career[00:00:10]

As a scientist [00:00:13]

This may prove useful to some of you some day [00:00:14]

Perhaps in a somewhat bizarre set of circumstances [00:00:16]

It's simply the names of the chemical elements[00:00:20]

Set to a possibly recognizable tune [00:00:22]

There's antimony arsenic aluminum selenium[00:00:34]

And hydrogen and oxygen and nitrogen and rhenium[00:00:36]

And nickel neodymium neptunium germanium[00:00:38]

And iron americium ruthenium uranium[00:00:40]

Europium zirconium lutetium vanadium[00:00:42]

And lanthanum and osmium and astatine and radium[00:00:44]

And gold protactinium and indium and gallium[00:00:46]

And iodine and thorium and thulium and thallium[00:00:48]

There's yttrium ytterbium actinium rubidium[00:00:52]

And boron gadolinium niobium iridium[00:00:54]

And strontium and silicon and silver and samarium[00:00:56]

And bismuth bromine lithium beryllium and barium[00:00:58]

Isn't that interesting[00:01:04]

I knew you would [00:01:08]

I hope you're all taking notes [00:01:10]

Because there's going[00:01:12]

To be a short quiz next period [00:01:12]

There's holmium and helium and hafnium and erbium[00:01:15]

And phosphorus and francium and fluorine and terbium[00:01:17]

And manganese and mercury molybdenum magnesium[00:01:19]

Dysprosium and scandium and cerium and cesium[00:01:21]

And lead praseodymium and platinum plutonium[00:01:23]

Palladium promethium potassium polonium[00:01:25]

And tantalum technetium titanium tellurium[00:01:27]

And cadmium and calcium and chromium and curium[00:01:30]

There's sulfur californium and fermium berkelium[00:01:34]

And also mendelevium einsteinium nobelium[00:01:36]

And argon krypton neon radon xenon zinc and rhodium[00:01:38]

And chlorine carbon cobalt copper tungsten tin and sodium[00:01:40]

These are the only ones of which[00:01:44]

The news has come to Harvard[00:01:46]

And there may be many others[00:01:48]

But they haven't been discovered[00:01:49]

Now may I have the next slide please[00:02:05]
