Verse 1
Cell theory, sounds swell.
Living things made up of a whole bunch of cells.
But what’s in a cell?
I’m about name off the parts, the functions as well.
First up is the nucleus, it’s the brains of this cell, controls everything in the cell.
Mitochondria, endoplasmic, reticulum, ribosomes, cytoplasm, cell membrane and vacuoles.

No, trillion and one cell units.
So get them all movin’.
Verse 2

I can talk about prokaryotic and eukaryotic.
Prokaryotic is missing a nucleus.
Eukaryotic is multicellular organisms and do you know this?
That when cells are working together they become tissues.
A complex system of tissues gets you organs, they make systems.
So I’m going to go ahead and just list them.
Respiratory system, digestive, immune, skeletal, circulatory system.
You have a nervous system, a muscular system, integumentary and endocrine system and all these systems cr
My son, mine, even my Mrs. Everyone that gets this, everyone that don't, every one that will, and everyone th
Chorus
You have a million and one.
No, trillion and one cell units.
So get them all movin’.
You have a million and one.
No, trillion and one cell units.
So get them all movin’.
