Science With Tom - So Many Systems lyrics

NARRATION Meet Jerry. He loves cookies & milk. But he's lactose intolerant. Have a cookie, Jerry INTRO [Mr. D] So many systems - nervous to digestion Think they don't interact? That's a misconception This group of cells. This group of cells They work together and they do it so well This group of cell. This group of cells In a tissue in an organ in a system VERSE ONE [Tom] Tissues? We're talking about tissues? When cells come together and they figure out their issues Making up the organs. Fluid flowing Valves pushing on open. I know you already know it But your heart is just part of system - cardiovascular A system in a system and just so you don't miss 'em It's interacting with the brain Kidneys, lungs, skin, muscles, and my gut Drink some milk. Drink it fast Even though I digest it in my mouth and my stomach Lactose is gonna test me From the stomach to intestines (first small then large) A bunch of E. Coli were resting now they're in charge Take that sugar and they're making CO2 Make some gas bubbles. Make 'em all say "pew.” Gut bacteria - oh so important! You could argue they could be their own dang organ BRIDGE I chop, they chop, we chop that food down That gut bacteria 'll chop that food down I chop, they chop, we chop that food down E. Coli in the system gonna chop that food down This group of cells This group of cells They work together and they do it so well This group of cells This group of cells In a tissue in an organ in a system
