The Safety Song

The laboratory is so wondrous place where experiments are put to test. There are so many tools at our disposal to study science at its best. Pipettes and beakers, what's this for? acids, bases, salts, galore. Bunsen, burners, scales, and more. We're going to have so much fun, and we've only just begun cause we have so many gadgets to explore. Let's make some chemical reactions. Now, wait just a minute my young scientists before we begin, we must be alert. There are so many hazards in the lab, and it's best if we do not get hurt. Equipment may appear robust, but glass can break, and tools can rust, so safety goggles are a must. And many fluid look the same, so we label them by name, be aware of open flames and we work with someone whom we trust. Oh there once was a famous monster Jeffrey who accidentally left tea on his lab desk late one night and then he made a wonderful discovery before he spilled his hot tea which ended in catastrophe. He should have been a little more careful that he wouldn't burned his lab down. So remember to keep drink and food away, just make it a part of your lab routine, and your desk holds many sensitive materials it is crucial that you make it clean. So wait, don't smell those toxic scent, safety is our best defense. Most of all use common sense. You know that shoes with open toes are at risk to be exposed to burns and glass, who knows. Please don't track in all that sand and don't touch that with bare hands. Gloves are a concern to avoid that nasty burn. You'll soon learn to be aware and can you clean up all that hair? Come on, safety is a serious affair. I'm not unsafe it's not fair. I can't help that I shed a purple hair, alas. I wish I had a second chance. Everybody makes mistakes, be careful next time for all our sakes. The laboratory is so wondrous place where experiments are put to test. There are so many tools at our disposal to study science at its best. It's important that we all take care. Stay alert and be aware cause safety is a duty shared. It's instrumental to identify potential things as they come by cause plans can often go awry and be must be prepared.
