kate anna mcgarrigle - nacl lyrics

just a little atom of chlorine, valence minus one,
swimming through the sea, diggin’ the scene, just havin’ fun,
she’s not worried about the shape or size of her outside sh-ll, it’s fun to ionize,
just a little atom of c-l with an unfilled sh-ll.
somewhere in that sea, lurks handsome sodium.
with enough electrons on his outside sh-ll, plus that extra one.
“somewhere in this deep blue sea there’s a negative for my extra energy,
yes, somewhere in this foam, my positive will find a home.”
then unsuspecting chlorine, felt a magnetic pull,
she looked down and her outside sh-ll was full,
sodium cried, “what a gas! be my bride,
and i’ll change your name from chlorine to chloride.”
now the sea evaporates to make the clouds for the rain and snow,
leaving her chemical compounds in the absence of h2o.
but the crystals that wash upon the sh-r- are happy ones, so if you never thought before . . .
think of the love that you eat, when you salt your meat.
