Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They said it’d be hard, an engineering degree,
But they didn’t warn me 'bout organic, you see,
Carbon and hydrogen, bonds in the night,
Cyclohexane dreams, what a horrible fight.
[Pre-Chorus]
Reactions and reagents, mechanisms to find,
In the labyrinth of structures, I’m losing my mind,
From alkenes to alcohols, each synthesis fights,
I'm trying to see the organic light.
[Chorus]
Oh, Organical, you're so diabolical (diabolical),
With your SN1, SN2, and stereos so optical,
You twist and you turn, through mechanisms we learn,
Hexagons and Heartaches, they burn.
[Verse 2]
The lectures are long, but the book too small.
Trying to see logic, but there's none at all,
Naming conventions, Fischer projections,
Each new detail is a whole new lesson..
[Pre-Chorus]
Reactions and reagents, mechanisms to find,
In the labyrinth of structures, I’m losing my mind,
From alkenes to alcohols, each synthesis fights,
I'm trying to see the organic light.
[Chorus]
Oh, Organical, you're so diabolical (diabolical),
With your SN1, SN2, and stereos so optical,
You twist and you turn, through mechanisms we learn,
Hexagons and Heartaches, they burn.
[Bridge]
But maybe there’s hope in this chaos we tread,
Each puzzle we solve, a new path to be led,
With Benoit our guide, in this chemical dance,
We’ll master the chaos, if given a chance.
[Chorus]
Oh, Organical, you're so diabolical (diabolical),
With your SN1, SN2, and stereos so optical,
You twist and you turn, through mechanisms we learn,
Hexagons and Heartaches, they burn
[outro]
So here’s to struggle, and here is to pain,
Cause no mather the journey we take,
Organic, will conquer and organic will stay.
