"Hey, Brain Sister" - Neurotransmitter Song
High School / Foreign Languages / Latin
Hey, let's talk about your brain Let's talk about your brain At every message between Your motor neurons and your skeletal muscles Oh, you'll find acetylcholine, your brain's way of controlling How your muscles contract So you're feeling down Can't pay attention to anything around You're laughing and you're crying But your brain is trying to control its dopamine Hey brain sister! Your neurotransmitters in your head you know They're on the go Sending messages to and fro Hey brain sister! Without your brain messengers Oh you wouldn't do a thing tonight! You're all worn out Your stomach's grumbling, you wanna ask that cute girl out Well don't you keep on groanin' It's just your seratonin, so you're not so sad If you're not quite there Your mind is drifting off into nowhere You need some norepinephrine To keep your brain a'listenin' to what's around Hey brain sister! Your neurotransmitters in your head you know They're on the go Sending messages to and fro Hey brain sister! Without your brain messengers Oh you wouldn't do a thing tonight! To keep all your neurons in line GABA is there all the time Regulating what they do And which traits they control of you You see - If you have MSG And you're a little bit twitchy Check your glutamate and you will see Hey brain sister! Your neurotransmitters in your head you know They're on the go Sending messages to and fro Hey brain sister! Without your brain messengers Oh you wouldn't do a thing tonight! Hey, you know about your brain Now you know about your brain Tonight
