COACH:
I am a Scientist when I am leading exercise
I am a Scientist when I am handing out a prize
Because I test and test and test and test
Until my ath’letes can be their best – I am a Scientist
Magic charms and lucky numbers – throw them in the bin!
Practiced minds with practiced bodies – that is how we win!
I am a Scientist when I am leading exercise
I am a Scientist when I am handing out a prize
Because I test and test and test and test
Until my ath’letes can be their best – I am a Scientist
COOK:
I am a Scientist when I am cooking lunch for you
I am a Scientist when I am baking pizza too
Because I test and test and test and test
Until the food I serve you tastes the best – I am a Scientist
Magic herbs and secret potions – these I just ignore
Making people strong and healthy – that’s what food is for
I am a Scientist when I am cooking lunch for you
I am a Scientist when I am baking pizza too
Because I test and test and test and test
Until the food I serve you tastes the best – I am a Scientist
STUDENTS:
We are the Scientists in every little thing we do
We are the Scientists because we look for what is true
And ‘cause we test and test and test and test
Until the things we do, we do our best – We are the Scientists
Things to learn and things to do and friendships to be made
Different people, different places – we are not afraid!
We are the Scientists in every little thing we do
We are the Scientists because we look for what is true
And ‘cause we test and test and test and test
Until the things we do, we do our best – We are the Scientists
