Rutherfordium Rover

Lyrics

[Verse 1] At the gate, the leash goes slack Paws make commas on the track A tennis ball skips past the bench Everybody’s nose goes tense [Pre-Chorus] Past the water bowl and the old oak tree There’s a tiny atom mystery [Chorus] Rutherfordium, R-F one-oh-four A rare little element with a big park roar Run, little rover, circle once more Rutherfordium, R-F one-oh-four [Verse 2] Dogs do science in the grass Sniff a clue and let it pass Heavy atom, made by hand Not a pebble in the sand For a blink it gets to be Part of this strange family [Pre-Chorus] By the tennis court, the tails all sway We’ve got a brand-new word to play [Chorus] Rutherfordium, R-F one-oh-four A rare little element with a big park roar Run, little rover, circle once more Rutherfordium, R-F one-oh-four [Bridge] Who dug that hole? Who found that stick? Who can fetch it extra quick? Science has its secret names Dogs have their own excellent games [Final Chorus] Rutherfordium, R-F one-oh-four A rare little element with a big park roar Run, little rover, circle once more Rutherfordium, R-F one-oh-four [Outro] Leashes on, the sun dips low One last sniff, then home we go Rutherfordium—what a score! R-F one-oh-four!
