Song 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 shell
It's fun to ionize
Just a little NaCl
With an unfilled shell

Somewhere in that sea
Lurks handsome sodium
With enough electrons on his outside shell
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 shell 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 shore are happy ones
So if you never thought before...
Think of the love that you eat
When you salt your meat

(Backwoods)
