Stairway to Boron (unfinished)

Mr. Mendeleev knows

Metals glitter like gold

And he's building a stairway to Boron.

When he get's there he knows

Even though its not close

Hydrogen is also a non-metal.

Ooh, Ooh, and he's building a stairway to Boron.

There's a chart on the wall

But he wants to be sure

'Cause you know some metals have two charges.

Tin and Iron are two

Lead and Copper make four,

And the diatomic gasses are shaped like a seven.

Ooh, chemistry's a wonder,

Ooh, chemistry's really a wonder.

There's a feeling I get

When I look to the left,

And I see the alkali metals.

In my thoughts I have seen

Lithium, Potassium,

Rubidium, Cesium, and Francium.

Ooh, Ooh, and he's building a stairway to Boron.
