Bloodmobile |
|
A delivery service inside us |
|
We begin in the heart's right ventricle |
|
And travel to the lungs |
|
Red blood cells get oxygen |
|
To take back to the heart |
|
Then from the left side of the heart |
|
And out to every cell |
|
Delivered by the |
|
Bloodmobile |
|
The food that's been digested |
|
Is waiting at the dock |
|
To be taken to the tissues |
|
In the body's grocery truck |
|
So from the small intestine |
|
It's carried everywhere |
|
Delivered by the |

The white blood cells are soldiers |
|
That fight infectious germs |
|
They make the antibodies |
|
Their weapons in the fight |
|
The army is transported |
|
Wherever they must go |
|
Delivered by the |

Bloodmobile |
|
We need to send a message |
|
To tell a limb to grow |
|
Or speed the heart or regulate |
|
Your hunger or your sleep |
|
The hormones are the message |
|
They're sent from many glands |
|
The messenger's the |
|
Bloodmobile |
|
Somebody's got to haul out the trash |
|
To the liver and the kidneys, it's not a pretty job |
|
Carbon dioxide gets carried to the lungs to be exhaled |
|
And the garbage truck is the |
|
Bloodmobile |
|
The Bloodmobile, the |
|
Bloodmobile |
|
A delivery service inside us |
|
To carry oxygen, nutrients |
|
Things that fight infections |
|
Do the trash collection and deliver the mail |
|
And we're all delivered by the |
