(Verse 1 - Nucleus)
Yo, I'm the nucleus, the control center
Holdin' the DNA Transcription, translation, I call the shots
From the nucleolus, ribosomes are brought
Double membrane bound, keepin' it tight
Runnin' this whole cell, day and night
(Verse 2 - Ribosomes)
Ribosomes in the house, protein synthesis is our thing
mRNA blueprints, the amino acids we string
Free floatin' or on the ER, we get the job done
Buildin' the proteins, one by one
Muscles, enzymes, everything you need
We're the protein factories, plantin' the seed
(Verse 3 - Endoplasmic Reticulum)
ER smooth and rough, a network so vast
Foldin' proteins, and makin' lipids fast
Smooth ER detoxifies, keeps the cell clean
Rough ER with ribosomes, a protein machine
Transportin' molecules, near and far
We're the highway system, a cellular star
(Verse 4 - Golgi Apparatus)
Golgi apparatus, the post office crew
Processin', packagin', sendin' it through
Proteins modified, tagged and addressed
Shipped in vesicles, put to the test
From the ER we receive, to the cell we deliver
The logistics experts, forever and ever
(Verse 5 - Mitochondria)
Mitochondria, the powerhouse, that's what they say
Cellular respiration, happenin' every day
Breakin' down glucose, releasin' the ATP
Energy currency, for you and for me
Double membrane bound, with cristae inside
Powerin' the cell, with nothin' to hide but
(Verse 6 - Lysosomes)
Lysosomes the cleaners, the recycling crew
Breakin' down waste, makin' everything new
Enzymes inside, digestin' the debris
Keepin' the cell healthy, naturally
Bacteria and viruses, we take 'em down
The sanitation squad, all over town
(Verse 7 - Cell Membrane)
Cell membrane, the bouncer, selectively permeable
Controlin' what enters, keepin' it stable
Phospholipid bilayer, with proteins interspersed
Protectin' the cell, from the very worst
Maintainin' balance, inside and out
The cell's security, no room for doubt and
(Verse 8 - Cytoskeleton)
Cytoskeleton, the framework, strong and bold
Microtubules, microfilaments, holdin' the fold
Maintainin' cell shape, and internal transport too
Movin' organelles, it's what we do
A dynamic structure, always on the go
Supportin' the cell, in every way you know
(Outro - All Organelles)
We're the organelles, workin' together as a team
Keepin' the cell alive, fulfillin' its dream
From the nucleus to the membrane, and everything between
We're the cellular symphony, a vibrant scene!
