Over a hundred elements, so different it’s hard to believe
We group them in a table, thanks to Mendeleev.
It’s periodic so you can tell, the number of electrons in the valence shell.
Atomic bonds are cool, and lighter ones follow the octet rule.
Pull out your table, put on your glasses, the happiest elements are nobel gases. (fart noises)
