Cellebration!

for Grandmaster E.ca'P
each verse = 4 bars of music
(8 bar instrumental intro)
Y'all listen close to the story I tell,
It's the rappin' story of the living cell.
It's a happy tune that's sorta cheery,
'Bout a real tough topic called cell theory.
All animals, plants, and protiens too,
Are made of cells with a job to do.
They're the basic units of organisms,
Hope by now you got the rhythm.
It started with a dude named Hooke -
Who at some cork cells took a look.
He used a scope and took his time,
'Cuz a cell is small and thinner than a dime.
(4 bar break)
Yo 1-2-3-4,
Are you ready to learn some more?
An animal cell has many parts,
You must know each one by heart.
Like a farmer man in the dell,
The nucleus controls the cell.
It gives the orders, like the brain -
Protected by a thin cell membrane.
Around the cell, there's another skin,
The cell membrane keeps the whole cell in.
The job's not simple, there's no doubt -
Lets some things in - and some things out!
(4 bar break)
Now don't you lose enthusiasm,
Listen to the story of the cytoplsm.
Around the cell, thick fluid goes,
But in the nucleus, it will not flow.
Don't forget those ribosomes -
This is where proteins are home.
These protein factories are so small,
Need an electron microscope to see them all.
Just when you thought you weren't having any fun,
It's the endoplasmic reticulum.
These tube-like structures serve as a track,
To carry stuff to the membrane and back.
(4 bar break)
Ever seen a doughnut without any holes?
In a cell, they're called vacuoles.
They're filled with stuff like H2O
And they carry food so the cell can grow.
Last of all, but not the least,
Mitochondria - mighty cellular beasts.
They turn sugars into energy oh so well -
They are the powerhouses of the cell.
Now my peeps, you know it well,
The amazing story of the living cell!
