t.R.N.A.
(to the tune of "Y.M.C.A.")
words by Frank Virzi
Codons - they've been looking for you;
anticodons - don't forget your delivery,
hold on, and remember to carry the
right a-mi-no acid
Codons - you're the messengers for
anitcodons - the three bases that bind, and then
hold on, while the peptide is forming be-
tween a-mi-no acids.
Just let me have some of that
t-RNA
I wanna bind with you -
t-RNA
a curvy cloverleaf shape, oh you've got what I want -
U-A-C for my A-U-G
Just let me have some of that
t-RNA
and spend some time with you -
t-RNA
you're single-stranded like me, you've got a U for a T, and
U-A-C for my A-U-G
Codons - you're transcribed from the DNA.
Codons - your three bases say what you say.
Hold on - while you go from the nucleus
to the cy-to-plasm
Codons - when you get to the ribosome
codons - find the right anticodon and
hold on - so your message is translated
to a-mi-no acids
Just let me have some of that
t-RNA
I wanna bind with you -
t-RNA
a curvy cloverleaf shape, oh you've got what I want -
U-A-C for my A-U-G
Just let me have some of that
t-RNA
and spend some time with you -
t-RNA
you're single-stranded like me, you've got a U for a T, and
U-A-C for my A-U-G
