It's the season and that's all the reason I needed to put together my very first Chemist Tree and write a song about it. Enjoy!

Lyrics:

O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
Your atoms are all glowing
O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
You're plastic, you're not growing
You're filled with famous scientists,
And a bunch of elements
O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
Your atoms are all glowing.

O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
Meitner, Boyle, Arrhenius
O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
Pauling was a genius
Hanging from the Chemist tree
Avogadro and Curie
O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
Rutherford and Davy

O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
With copper, gold and fluorine
O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
With copper, silver, chlorine
From top to bottom, glassware bright,
Beakers, test tubes, flasks so light
O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
Your secrets are not boring.

O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
John Dalton is your topper
O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
For you he is your father
He discovered atomic mass
And properties of ideal gas
O Chemist Tree! O Chemist Tree!
Some folks asked me why bother?

Because it's awesome, that's why!!!!!
