The last one I submitted was wrong. I m not sure how to edit tabs once they re submitted
so I ve resubmitted the correct version. If you want to listen to it, here s the link

Within every little cell that s in all of us
Is a tiny little thing called the nucleus
But it s the stuff inside that really caused a fuss
Cause it s the stuff that tells our bodies how to grow into us
It s a very long complicated molecule
But for something so small it s very influential
It can make you grow big and strong and tall
Or if it s like mine it makes you hairy and small
It s DNA DNA
Three little letters with a lot to say
Deoxy ribo nucleic acid
Yeah that s DNA
It comes in little packets called chromosomes
You get half from your Daddy and half from your mum
It s a double helix ladder with a code made from
Paired amino acids and it s very long
Well the adenine pairs with the thymine
And the guanine pairs with the cytosine
And when you ve got enough pairs you ve got a gene
That can tell a cell how to make a protein
It s DNA DNA
Three little letters with a lot to say
Deoxy ribo nucleic acid
Yeah that s DNA
Every time a cell divides it makes a replication
But every now and then there is a mutation
And the mutation can cause an innovation
And that might make a situation
Like a baby being born with eleven toes
Or a blood disease or a massive nose
Don t make babies with your cousin cause you should know
It multiplies the chances that the defects show
It s DNA DNA
Three little letters with a lot to say
Deoxy ribo nucleic acid
Yeah that s DNA
DNA DNA
It could make you crazy it could make you gay
It could make your hair fall all away
It could make it blonde brown blue or grey
DNA DNA
It could make you want to fight or want to prey
It could make you drop down dead today
Woah that s DNA
