Mole Madness İ Mike Offutt

Lyrics and chords

       G            C
I was eating cheese nachos
     D            G
at a movie last week
     Em        C                 D
when something strange came over me
      G                 C
But it wasnıt in my stomach,
     D           G
no, it was in my brain
   C              D            G
I started thinking Œbout chemistry
   G                    C
My head filled up with images
   D               G
of molecules and atoms
          Em                C             D
and what happens when they chemically combine
        G                  C
I could see Œem spinninı round Œn round
   D              G
colliding....rearranging
C        D               G
What was happening to my mind?
(chorus)
     Em             C              D
Mole madness, itıs coming to your town
      Em            C          D
Mole madness, gonna track you down
     Em            C             D
Mole madness, will get into your soul
     C            D                 G
Mole madness will make you love the mole
     G                C
So I went to see my doctor
       D                  G
and he said, ³Weıre gonna help you.
        Em                C             D
But we have to check Œn see if you are stable.²
    G              C
He hooked me to a big machine
      D               G
With lots of flashinı lights
         C         D       G
Then he held up a periodic table.
         G              C
Well, my heart started pounding
     D              G
my blood pressure soared
     Em               C               D
my brain waves nearly broke that poor machine
   G                C
my Doctor shook his head
           D               G
looked me straight in the eyes and said
         C       D                     G
³Itıs the worst case that I have ever seen!²
CHORUS
  G                C
I started freaking out
    D             G
and cryinı like a baby
       Em            C                 D
But my Doctor said, ³Hey, donıt feel blue!²
   G        C          D              G
It could be worse, you could be into physics,
        C             D               G
and besides, we got a special day for you!
     G               C
That day is called mole day
       D           G
And it comes every year
        Em            C               D
when we celebrate the unit called the mole
      G       C         D            G
it contains 6.02 times ten to 23rd power
            C        D                G
When youıve got that much, you got a mole
