Chemistry

I remember when I found out about chemistry
It was a long, long way from here
I was old enough to want it but younger than I wanted to be
Suddenly my mission was clear
So for a while I conducted experiments
And I was amazed by the things I learned
From the fine, fine girl with nothing but good intentions and abad tendency to get burned
Oh
All about chemistry
Won't you show me everything you know
Ah wonder what you do to me Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
Some time later I met a young graduate
When I had nobody to call my own
I told her I was looking for somebody to appreciate
And I just couldn't do it alone
So for awhile we conducted experiments
In an apartment by the River Road
And we found out that the two things we put together had a badtendency to explode
Oh
All about chemistry
Won't you show me everything you've learned
I'll memorize everything you do to me so I can
Teach it when it comes my turn
Fine spring day, California waves
Sweet Pacific scenes through the
Windows of airplanes and hotel rooms
So when I find myself alone and unworthy
I think about all of the things I learned from the
Fine, fine women with nothing but good intentions and a badtendency to get burned
Oh
All about chemistry
Won't you show me everything you know
Ah wonder what you do to me Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
All about chemistry
Won't you show me everything you've learned
I'll memorize everything you do to me so I can teach it when itcomes my turn
It's all about chemistry (California waves)
It's all about chemistry
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
It's all about chemistry (sweet Pacific scenes)
It's all about chemistry
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh
