Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
So, for a while, I conducted experiments
And I was amazed by the things I learned
From the fine, fine girl with nothin'
But good intentions and a
Bad tendency to get burned
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Some time later, I met a young graduate
When I had nobody to call my own
I told her I was lookin' for somebody to appreciate
And I just couldn't do it alone
[Verse 5]
So, for a while, we conducted experiments
In an apartment by the River Road
And we found out that the two thing
We put together had a bad tendency to explode
[Verse 6]
Oh, all about chemistry
Won't you show me everything you learned
I'll memorize everything you do to me
So I can teach it when it comes my turn
[Verse 7]
Fine Spring days, California waves
Sweet Pacific scenes through
The windows of airplanes and hotel room
[Verse 8]
So when I find myself alone and unworthy
I think about all the things I've learned
From the fine, fine women with nothin'
But good intentions and a
Bad tendency to get burned
[Verse 9]
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
[Verse 10]
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
[Verse 11]
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
