Don’t Cha Wish You Were a Cell
Okay okay…yea…
We’re about to get started with a little bit of the cell theory here.
Ohh baby.
Prokaryotes lets go. (cells)
Eukaryotes lets go. (cells)
Let me talk to y’all about cells and just give you a little situation….listen
Robert Hooke….see he invented cell theory.
Cells are the basic unit of organization.
Make the world sizzle ‘cause all things are made up of cells.
On the prowl for the best cell,
yes we’re on the lookout.
Shouldn’t be too hard since cells all cells come form pre-existing cells.
No tricks only cells under our sleeve,
Gimme the cell structures, oh please!
I know you like me. (I know you like me)
I’m a prokaryote. (prokaryote)
I am bacteria.
I aint’ got no nucleus. (nucleus)
It’s easy to see… It’s easy to see
I’m so much less complex than a eukaryote…no membrane bound organelles.
MMMHHHMMM
CHORUS:
Don’t cha wish you were a cell just like me?
Don’t cha wish you had organelles like me?
Nucleus.
Ribosomes.
Don’t cha wish you had selective permeability?
Don’t cha wish you were as complex as me?
Cell wall.
Cytoplasm.
We fight conformity. (fight the feeling)
We aint’ got no nucleus. (no nucleus)
Instead we’ve got a nuceloid
And it’s enough to keep a happy cell.
But understand (but understand),
We’ve still got a cytoplasm, ribosomes, a cell wall, as well as cellular membrane.

Ok, I see how it’s goin’ down.
Seems like a little confusing, but we will manage to pop it out (lets go)
Eukaryotes are plant or animal cells,
They’re the god almighty, looking all good.
Just a few little differences between the two.
Just listen for a second and we’ll explain em’ to you.
Both animal and plant cells have a:
Nucleus, ribosomes, golgi body, ER, cytoskeleton, membrane, and a mitochondria.
Looking at this all you might wanna’ break your back, but that’s the reason we’re here.
We’ve got this dope idea for y’all…
An animal cell has a lysosome, centriole,
And a plant cell has a central vacuole, chloroplast, and a cell wall.
Aren’t you glad (aren’t you glad) you listened to our presentation?
Aren’t you glad (aren’t you glad)
You know all about cells?
Don’t cha?
