Beats of Science - The Song Of Thyroid Gland | Sing & Learn Lyrics

Hey kids let's learn today
About a gland that works all day
In your neck it takes its stand
Shaped like a butterfly it's so grand

Thyroid thyroid what do you do?
You help us grow and feel brand new
Making hormones T3 T4
Keeping us healthy that's for sure

Two big lobes left and right
With an isthmus shining bright
Tiny follicles inside
Where magic hormones like to hide

Two big lobes left and right
With an isthmus shining bright
Tiny follicles inside
Where magic hormones like to hide

Iodine is what you need
To make the hormones yes indeed
TRH from the brain says "Go"
TSH from the pituitary flows

T3 T4 hit the track
Speeding up the body's pack
Heart and muscles brain and bones
All get help from those hormones

So remember kids every day
Your thyroid works in a special way
Treat it well let it thrive
And it will help you feel alive

Thyroid thyroid what do you do?
You help us grow and feel brand new
Making hormones T3 T4
Keeping us healthy that's for sure
