Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Context-sensitive half-time — not a constant, not a lie,
It's how the drug accumulates the longer that you try,
Fentanyl will linger, hours pooled in fat and bone,
Sufentanil redistributes slower on its own,
But remifentanil — ester bonds cleaved fast and clean,
Plasma half-time ninety seconds, shortest ever seen,
Infusion runs for hours, cut it off and patients wake,
No accumulation — that's the pharmacist's daybreak

[Chorus]
Полчаса — не твій час, контекст вирішує,
Context-sensitive — the lipid store accrues,
Remi cuts through, fentanyl settles in the fat,
Знай свій препарат — know exactly where you're at,
Час — це все, time is everything,
Half-time shifts with every hour the drip is running

[Verse 2]
Succinylcholine — elegant but dangerous to some,
Contraindications etched before you give the drug and run,
Denervation burns — upregulated receptors bloom,
Hyperkalemia strikes, potassium fills the room,
Burns beyond twenty-four hours, crush and cord disease,
Myopathies lurk quiet — rhabdomyolysis with ease,
Malignant hyperthermia — ryanodine receptor flaw,
Pseudocholinesterase deficient, prolonged by natural law,
Raised intragastric pressure — relative, weigh the cost,
Glaucoma and open globe, the vitreous could be lost

[Chorus]
Полчаса — не твій час, контекст вирішує,
Context-sensitive — the lipid store accrues,
Remi cuts through, fentanyl settles in the fat,
Знай свій препарат — know exactly where you're at,
Час — це все, time is everything,
Half-time shifts with every hour the drip is running

[Verse 3]
MAC is one-point-zero — fifty percent won't move,
Modifiers bend that number out of every textbook groove,
Age decreases MAC — elderly need less sevoflurane,
Hypothermia, opioids, pull the number down again,
Hyperthyroid, fever, alcohol acute — they push it higher,
Nitrous oxide adds its fraction — additive, no synapse wire,
Sevo at point-six-five MAC, nitrous brings point-five,
One-point-one-five combined — surgical depth, patient's alive,
It's the concept of veridical addition — truthful math,
Stack the agents carefully and calculate the path

[Bridge]
Sugammadex encapsulates rocuronium complete,
But renal failure traps that complex — excretion won't delete,
The drug returns, the block returns — vecuronium wakes,
Рекурарізація — watch the diaphragm as it breaks,
Monitor with train-of-four, anticipate recurarization,
Redose sugammadex sixteen milligrams per kilogram — precision,
Ventilate until the fade resolves and TOF ratio's sound,
Веди пацієнта — hold the airway, don't stand down

[Chorus]
Полчаса — не твій час, контекст вирішує,
Context-sensitive — the lipid store accrues,
Remi cuts through, fentanyl settles in the fat,
Знай свій препарат — know exactly where you're at,
Час — це все, time is everything,
Half-time shifts with every hour the drip is running
