Amoeba Lyrics
[Chorus]
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
[Verse 1]
We are scientists in our lab
Looking through the microscope
The little glass slides they never lie
How can this small mind cope?
[Pre-Chorus]
I've never seen anything like it before (Ahhh, ahhh)
This amoeba's got a mind of it's own (Ahhh)
But don't turn your back, you stupid science world (Ahhh, ahhh)
This is reaching for the telephone (Ahhh)
[Chorus]
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
[Verse 1]
We are scientists in our lab
Looking through the microscope
The little glass slides they never lie
How can this small mind cope?
[Pre-Chorus]
I've never seen anything like it before (Ahhh, ahhh)
This amoeba's got a mind of it's own (Ahhh)
But don't turn your back, you stupid science world (Ahhh, ahhh)
This is reaching for the telephone (Ahhh)
[Chorus]
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
[Verse 2]
A one-celled creature, a one-celled thing
It hardly knows it's alive
You're better off dead if you only knew
Your growing life is taking a dive
[Pre-Chorus]
I've never seen anything like it before (Ahhh, ahhh)
This amoeba's got a mind of it's own (Ahhh)
But don't turn away you stupid science world (Ahhh, ahhh)
This is reaching for the telephone (Ahhh)
[Chorus]
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
[Outro]
Ahhhhhhh
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba (Amoeba, amoeba, amoeba, amoeba)
Amoeba (Amoeba, amoeba, amoeba, amoeba)
Amoeba (Amoeba, amoeba, amoeba, amoeba)
Amoeba (Amoeba, amoeba, amoeba, amoeba)
A one-celled creature, a one-celled thing
It hardly knows it's alive
You're better off dead if you only knew
Your growing life is taking a dive
[Pre-Chorus]
I've never seen anything like it before (Ahhh, ahhh)
This amoeba's got a mind of it's own (Ahhh)
But don't turn away you stupid science world (Ahhh, ahhh)
This is reaching for the telephone (Ahhh)
[Chorus]
Amoeba
Amoeba
Amoeba
