"Strain!"

Strain! Uh Ok!
Yo Phanstiel!
Strain, Strain Strain, Strain Strain, Strain
Strain, Strain Strain, Strain Strain, Strain
Let's Go Guys!

I'm in class with my homies, Mike, Will and Ricky, trying get a good grade, Cause you know how that feels.
I asked what's Torsional, Otto said, "strain from eclipsing," you'd think he knew everything.
So I started to study.
You Nerds!

The Material got heavy; and my brain was about to explode
(Watch Out! EWWW! Watch Out!)
Otto said come get this steric
He said put two atoms too close together, they're gonna repel
So I told myself

S-T-R-A-I-N Cyclopropane has torsional strain
Cyclobutane puckers 25 degrees out
and with cyclopentane has angle strain
But cyclohexane it has no strain, its coming at you stable!

Strain, Strain Strain, Strain Strain, Strain
Strain, Strain Strain, Strain Strain, Strain

Organic's all in my head now, It might be good idea to know axial / equatorial,
Cause its in 3-Dv 3- WHO!?
Now I gotta understand now, cause the ge-ome-tery is a certified chair, and I wanna pass.
NAHH!

Cause I do know if you add to equatorial its gonna be fi-ne
But I also know that if I add to axial its not going to work
The way it hits #3 C!
I'm like no, I gotta put it equatorial.
I did my OWL and got a 20 and now I'm
Like, Strain! I can't drop the class now
So I said

[Chorus]

Watch out! My chem. is ridiculous, in class I'm so meticulous
And Rowl! These chemists all on the prowl, if you hold the atoms stable, I'll name it cyclohexane
Forget about class I'm gonna spit the truth, I won't stop till I'm in Otto's shoes
So gimmie the chance and it'll be off with Ottos, then run over to the office and get MY mottos

I left the cis and took the trans, if it ain't in the sun then it's in the sand
How you like me now, when my old tests valued over three hundred thousand,
Lets study you the one to please, No need to worry with got McMurry
Me and Will once more and we leave em dead, don't wanna strain too much but we gotta pass

[Chorus]

Take that and rewind it back, We got the strain to make your bond go steric
Take that and rewind it back, We got the strain to make your bond go torsional
Take that and rewind it back, We got the strain to make your bond go angle
Take that and rewind it back, We got the skills to make you learn organic
