Heather Dale - NaCI lyrics

Just a little atom of chlorine Valence minus one Swimming through the sea Diggin' the scene, just havin' fun She's not worried about the shape or size of her outside shell It's fun to ionize Just a little atom of Cl with an unfilled shell Somewhere in that sea Lurks handsome sodium With enough electrons on his outside shell Plus that extra one Somewhere in this deep blue sea There's a negative for his extra energy Yeah, somewhere in this foam His positive will find a home Then unsuspecting chlorine felt the magnetic pull She looked down and her outside shell was full Sodium cried, “What a gas! Be my bride And I'll change your name from chlorine to chloride!” Now the sea evaporates To make the clouds for the rain and snow Leaving her chemical compounds In the absence of H2O But the crystals that wash upon the shore, they are happy ones So if you never thought before: Think of the love that you eat when you salt your meat So if you never thought before: Think of the love that you eat when you salt your meat
