Lyrics
Safety
Chorus
Wait,
you’ve gotta make sure that your lab is safe
Before
you make a measurement, scope out the space
Got
your gloves pulled up, got your goggles on
Don’t
want to be another lab experiment gone wrong
Go
with goggles, go with the gloves!
Go
without food, and spit out your gum!
Go
safe! Go safe! And get into it
Go
safe scientists, no accidents!
Verse
I
You know
the science lab can be a pretty dangerous place
You gotta
wear safety goggles to protect your face
And just
in case you still end up with stuff in your eye
You should
know how to find the eyewash nearby
And as
a matter of fact, know where the exits are too
‘Cause
if a fire starts, you better know what to do
And you
don’t have to be a hero, try to break the mold
Be sure
to follow all directions and just do as you’re told
It reminds
me of this time I was sitting in lab
Trying
to work through the experiment and give it a stab
When my
partner started grabbing chemicals from the shelves
Started
mixing up some liquids with unusual smells
Before
he could stop, it began to bubble up
In a couple
of seconds he was in deep, deep trouble
So maybe
mixing crazy potions didn’t go as he’d planned
He didn’t
follow the directions and he burned his hand (ouch!)
Chorus
fore
you make a measurement, scope out the space
Got
your gloves pulled up, got your goggles on
Don’t
want to be another lab experiment gone wrong
Go
with goggles, go with the gloves!
Go
without food, and spit out your gum!
Go
safe! Go safe! And get into it
Go
safe scientists, no accidents!
Verse
II
It’s lab
time and you’re ballin’, on top of things
Hypothesis
made the call on what you want to see
But hold
up, because it looks like you forgot some things
Before
you pour, let me know what’s wrong with this scene
Your eyes
are wide open to take in results
Or get
blinded by all kinds of chemicals
They could
splash up and mess up your complexion
So keep
it hot, yo, and don those goggles
The same
goes for your fingers, your hair, and your toes
No flip-flops,
your kicks should have the tips closed
Your fingers
should slip through the wrists of some gloves
No acid
contamination on your palms
And your
nose, you’ve gotta steer clear of the chemicals
Or they’ll
burn your nostrils (and you kind of want those!)
Protect
it, don’t smell it, just waft with me, waft with me
Don’t
need no medics, just waft with me, waft with me
Hands
over the flask, your nose hanging back
Keep your
nostrils intact, just waft with me, waft with me
Chorus
fore
you make a measurement, scope out the space
Got
your gloves pulled up, got your goggles on
Don’t
want to be another lab experiment gone wrong
Go
with goggles, go with the gloves!
Go
without food, and spit out your gum!
Go
safe! Go safe! And get into it
Go
safe scientists, no accidents!
Verse
III
Hey, I
think I really like this lab stuff
I’m gonna
do it again tomorrow ’cause I can’t get enough
Of safely
making crazy things happen, it’s fun
It’s amazing,
I’ve seen the reactions, I’m done
You’re
almost done man, can you tell me your plan
For what
to do with all that toxic waste in your hand?
I just
heard the bell ring, I’ve gotta think quick
I think
I’ll wash it down the sink
Whoa,
whoa, whoa
Hold on,
bro, how do you know where that goes?
By tomorrow
the sink will be starting to glow
Put the
waste in the designated receptacle
And clean
your station off before you take off, yo
“Put the
caps on the bottles?”
Yeah,
that’s right.
“Wipe
the tabletop off?”
Yeah,
that’s right.
“Run the
flask under water?”
Yeah,
that’s right.
You cleaned
up real nice, see, and nobody died
