Lyrics The Seed Song - Atom And His Package

The Seed Song

Dalton, Thompson, Rutherford, and Bohr
Schrodinger and Hindenburg and many many more
Use their brains to venture in the
realm of inner-space
And found the world of the atom was a weird and wondrous place
Dalton did experiments and said I think it’s clear
Atoms are tiny indestructible spheres
Thomson worked with cathode rays said I disagree
A plum pudding model makes much more sense to me
A new chapter in atomic theory started to unfold
When Rutherford played around with atoms made of gold
When a few of his output particles came bouncing back
He hypothesized a nucleus had knocked them off the track
Dalton, Thompson, Rutherford, and Bohr
Schrodinger and Hindenburg and many many more
Use their brains to venture in the realm of inner-space
And found the world of the atom was a weird and wondrous place
Bohr saw spectral lines from hydrogen and said it
seems to me electron move in orbits with specific energies
Hindenburg said forget it,
there’s no way to know the orbit or
the path where the electron’s going to go
Schrodinger use lots and lots of fancy mathematics
Made a model of the atom based on quantum mechanic
It has orbitals and those are based on probability
The atom is a fuzzy blob of pure uncertainty
Dalton, Thompson, Rutherford, and Bohr
Schrodinger and Hindenburg and many many more
Use their brains to venture in the realm of inner-space
And found the world of the atom was a weird and wondrous place
Dalton, Thompson, Rutherford, and Bohr
Schrodinger and Hindenburg and many many more
Use their brains to venture in the realm of inner-space
And found the world of the atom was a weird and wondrous place
