The Alexis Thinks I'm Crazy Song
by Matt Wilkins (and lines 5-6 by Sarah Martin)

Alexis is
  I've not eaten tree
Anything she wants to be
  But I'm sure it's really good!
I'll be mad
  If I was a termite
If they try to charge a fee
  I would eat tree all day long
Our teacher is a teacher
  But if I was a termite
Not a Dobbins fly
  I could not sing this song
Garza is a chemist
  Ephymeroptera
Not an organic guy
  Specifically Betiscidae
To ID bugs
  His first cousin's
Use a dichotomous key
  Ephemerillidae
Rusty colored water
  Macroinvertebrates
Makes us wanna make some tea
  Are really hard to see
Hey Birmingham Sarah
  Under the microscope
What in the heck are these?!
  Some really scare me
It's gotta be a couple
  Now we're done with
Tricarythodes
  Qualitative analysis
I'm so stoked
  We had fun
Cuz I had some Starbucks Joe
  Makin' a hypothesis
Thank God for coffee
  Now I know an
Without it I'd be running slow
  Epiphysis from dialysis
Hey that reminds me --
  Thanks to Drs. Dobbins
Mango really tastes like wood
  And Garza.
