Ribosome Song

Melodie basiert auf Roll Over Beethoven von Chuck Berry
Text von David Fastovski
gesungen von Peter Russell

Well, I got that gene expression, gonna need some tRNA
I got some rockin' polypeptides, for my ribosomes today
Got that old Central Dogma of nuclear DNA

Mendel and genetics, I really dig yellow, wrinkled peas
Independent segregation brings me right down on my knees
Even chromosomal linkage -- I ain't hard to please

Well if you feel and like it you get your genome and
reel and rock and roll it over and
move on up just one codon farther and
reel and rock and roll it over
Got that old Central Dogma of nuclear DNA
Got a funny thing for lactose, you know I just got to confess
I'm just an old promoter, it's something I can't quite repress
Have to be an operator, to get something more for less

In experimental animals, genetics gotta take the lead
Rabbits and E. coli, Neurospora crassa, even folks at Reed
They'll use any organism if its got reproductive speed

Well if you feel and like it you get your genome and
reel and rock and roll it over and
move on up just one codon farther and
reel and rock and roll it over
Got that old Central Dogma of nuclear DNA
