[Chorus]
DNA starts to unwind
The RNA reads the other side
Meiosis is the key to making life
Mitosis copies cells about to die
All my cells are dead
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead, yeah
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead
All my cells are dead
DNA starts to unwind
The RNA reads the other side
Meiosis is the key to making life
Mitosis copies cells about to die
All my cells are dead
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead, yeah
If my genes go left unread
All my cells are dead
All my cells are dead
Unwind the DNA
Prep for mitosis happens in the interphase
Then we move to prophase
Spindles start to shape
Chromatids condense as the bubble breaks down
Yeah, I'm talking membrane
Metaphase chromatids meet at the heart
Anaphase chromatids are pulled apart
Telophase forming of membrane will start
While the cell starts to pinch back apart
Cytokineses the cycle is through
That's when cytoplasm ends up split in two
Meiosis is alike, except it happens twice
And chromatids are spliced
Please remember the difference is key
Mitosis makes somatic cells
The cells that make up all of me
Except for in my sex organs
My haploid cells take half of me
