The Dihydrogen Monoxide Song
[Verse 1]
There's a menace
There's a threat
There's no safe way to remove all of it yet

It's in our lakes
It's in our streams
It even seeps through swimsuit seams

It's been found
In rain and snow
In the most remote places you can go

It's even been found
In babies' tears
And in Olympic swimmers' ears

[Bridge]
If you inhale it, you could die
Dihydrogen monoxide

[Chorus 1]
Dihydrogen monoxide
Dihydrogen monoxide
It's showing up in rivers far and wide
Dihydrogen monoxide
[Verse 2]
Hydrogen can be a blast alonе
And oxygen makes the Earth our homе
But when their ratio is two to one
They create a chemical that isn't always fun


It can turn into a gas when it gets hot
The liquid form can even cause a house to rot
The solid form can be hazardous too
And odds are high this solvent is already inside you

[Bridge]
It can even cause a rock slide
Dihydrogen monoxide

[Chorus 2]
Dihydrogen monoxide
Dihydrogen monoxide
It seeps through your skin when it's hot outside
Dihydrogen monoxide

[Verse 3]
It corrodes some pipes
It corrodes some tools
It's often found right on the ground and in swimming pools
It's in our sinks
It's in our drains
It's even been found inside our brains


Watermelons have a high amount
Water park levels are more than we can count
What are we doing to stop this threat?
What a major danger and there's no solution yet

[Bridge]
There's no place that you can hide
Dihydrogen monoxide

[Chorus 3]
Dihydrogen monoxide
Dihydrogen monoxide
It's hard to wash off when it's liquefied
Dihydrogen monoxide

[Verse 4]
It's found in fish
It's found in juice
And even in the urine of every tested moose

It's not too late
To stop this curse
We can stop this menace before it's even worse

Yes, you can make a difference
Please give now
We've started a foundation and it needs your money now

Donate to our research
To learn how far this reaches
We'll monitor DHMO at several famous beaches

[Bridge]
Send money and we'll be your guide
Dihydrogen monoxide

[Chorus 4]
Dihydrogen monoxide
Dihydrogen monoxide
Apples test high for it unless they're dried
Dihydrogen monoxide



Dihydrogen monoxide
Dihydrogen monoxide
Levels increase at high tide
Dihydrogen monoxide
