This song was inspried by Cori Richards and Bryan Carstens from Lacey Knowles's lab.
It's sort of to the tune of "Sixteen Tons".
-Wendy 2005

With a twelve-gauge pipettor in his arms of eight,
takes no time to load a ninety-six well plate.
So don't think it weird or or think it odd,
that your thermocyclers run by a cephalopod.

CHORUS:
He's the best lab tech, his skills are terrific.
The best lab tech from the deep pacific.
The best lab tech, don't find it preposterous.
The best lab tech, the molecular octopus.

When writing your grant, don't forget to include
a year's supply of yummy seafood
He can save you money and save you time
By using his ink as a loading dye.
