Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Row four, part two, thirty-one through thirty-six,
Gallium first, liquid metal melting on your wrist,
Twenty-nine-point-eight and it's puddle in your fist,
Ga be shape-shiftin', silver spoon trick, don't resist.

Germanium, thirty-two, grey and brittle, semi-tough,
Before silicon blew up, Ge was running all that stuff,
Metalloid straddlin' the fence, half metal, half not enough,
Transistor's grandaddy, quiet but it called the bluff.

[Chorus]
Гусь спросил, гусь спросил — goose done asked it twice,
Gallant geese ask seven brown krakens, rollin' dice,
Тридцать один, тридцать шесть — Gallium to Krypton, nice,
Ga Ge As Se Br Kr, say it fast, that's the vice.
Элементы, элементы, тридцать один до тридцать шесть,
Row four part two, geese and krakens, that's the test.

[Verse 2]
Arsenic, thirty-three, geese askin' careful, watch your cup,
Victorian wallpaper green, poisoned every dinner sup,
As the metalloid doper, semiconductors sip it up,
Little bit seasons silicon, too much and you're corrupt.

Selenium, thirty-four, seven shades caught in the glass,
Old light meters clicked alive whenever shadows passed,
Se rides quiet in your blood, thyroid's bodyguard at last,
Trace amount keep you steady, overdose and you'll crash.

[Verse 3]
Bromine, thirty-five, brown liquid, only one that flows,
Fumes crawl orange from the flask, sharpest thing your nose knows,
Br the loner halogen, flame-retardant, chlorine's foe,
Pool water bites you clean, no mercy, that's the glow.

Krypton, thirty-six, noble gas sealed shut and still,
Superman's dead planet drifting cold on Kryptonite's own hill,
Lilac glow trapped in the bulb, won't bond, won't bend, won't spill,
The noblest of the krakens, silent, holdin' its own will.

[Verse 4]
Four elements metal, two more that breathe like ghosts,
Gallium bends, Germanium anchors, As and Se hold the coast,
Bromine burns wet fire while Krypton keeps its noble boast,
Row four part two teaches balance, science loves it most.

[Chorus]
Гусь спросил, гусь спросил — goose done asked it twice,
Gallant geese ask seven brown krakens, rollin' dice,
Тридцать один, тридцать шесть — Gallium to Krypton, nice,
Ga Ge As Se Br Kr, say it fast, that's the vice.
Элементы, элементы, тридцать один до тридцать шесть,
Row four part two, geese and krakens, passed the test.

[Bridge]
Geese don't lie, krakens don't bite,
Ga Ge As Se Br Kr, lock it in tonight,
Тридцать один до тридцать шесть, повтори,
Row four closin' out, part two, verify.

[Outro]
Gallant geese, seven brown krakens rest,
Ga Ge As Se Br Kr, that's row four's best,
От Галлия до Криптона — done, no stress,
Thirty-one through thirty-six, taped to your chest.
