ALIEN GOBBLER

[by the Bungee Jumpin’ Cows]

Topic: Immune System

Summary: A song about the constant battles that rage within us, as our alien gobblers (white blood cells) beat back aliens invading our bodies (viruses and bacteria).

When you cut yourself alien bacteria crawls in

Viruses can also sneak in where your skin is thin    

Alien gobbler, a white blood cell not a red

Alien gobbler, he chomps aliens till he's dead

Now other white blood cells help out our little friend  Alien gobbler

They've got antibody weapons that they surely send Alien gobbler

Alien gobbler, with antibodies on the go

Alien gobbler, custom made for every foe

Chorus:

Histamine alert bacteria's here, killing every cell that's near

Uninvited parasite, alien gobbler time to fight!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

(He's munchin' alien lunchin', you'll feel better when he eats his foe

He's chompin' alien stompin' - alien gobbler go!

Antibodies , set them loose, make the right ones reproduce

Send them off to the war, go ahead and make some more

Antibodies kill ‘n’ cut aliens all around              Alien gobbler

Or they coat ‘em and the alien gobblers come up and chomp 'em down       Alien gobbler

Alien gobbler, keeps piggin', just can't stop

Alien gobbler, till he croaks then we send him to the top

A river of puss, put the fallen warriors in          Alien gobbler

Hardens to a scab, a war memorial on your skin       Alien gobbler

Alien gobbler, stamps invaders out

Alien gobbler, just give him a shout
