Don’t Thump Your Melon by Fitz and Ric
Without your brain stem, you’re a has-been
You need it to breathe, and if it didn't regulate consciousness, you wouldn’t see
Don’t be late, it controls your heart rate
Like a runner in a race, it determines the heart’s pace
Don’t thump your melon, you’ll act like a villain
Don’t hurt your noggin, you’ll forget your login
The cerebellum keeps you on your feet
And lets you rub your belly and stomp your feet
Without it, you can’t move
And if you can’t move, you can’t groove
Don’t thump your melon, you’ll act like a villain
Don’t hurt your noggin, you’ll forget your login
Your emotions come from the system that’s limbic
Without it, there are no emotions, and that’s an ick
It’s also your behavior
It’s quite the savior
The corpus callosum
Is two parts like a hot dog bun
Now isn’t that fun
Don’t thump your melon, you’ll act like a villain
Don’t hurt your noggin, you’ll forget your login
The medulla is small like Hasbulla
It lets you swallow
And then the food will follow
Oh man
Frontal lobe helps you plan
Parietal lobe is your 5 senses
Have you learned your lessons?
Temporal lobe processes sound
It helps you get around
Occipital lobe processes what you see
Like the movie about the Bee
Don’t thump your melon, you’ll act like a villain
Don’t hurt your noggin, you’ll forget your login
The somatosensory cortex tells you the temp
When the pan is hot, you yelp
The personality comes from your Prefrontal Cortex
It’ll help you act your best
The motor cortex lets you choose to move
And if you can’t move, you can’t groove
