There's a telegram for you ma'am,
10
And the message is clear.
11
It says there's something bugging you
12
And buzzing in your ear.
13
The results can be quite itchy
14
So what is your reply?
15
Tell your arm to swat that fly!
16
Hey, there's a telegraph line,
17
You got yours and I got mine.
18
It's called the nervous system,
19
And everybody understands
20
Those telegram commands
21
And you know that everybody better listen!
22
The central nervous system
23
Is the brain and the spine.
24
The brain controls the system
25
And the spine is the line.
26
Telegrams come in
27
To tell what's happening to you,
28
Then telegrams go out
29
To tell your body what to do.

Dit dittle dittle dit
33
There's a telegram for you sir,
34
Better read it on the spot.
35
It says your hand is near a stove
36
That's very, very hot.
37
The results can be quite painful,
38
And there's no time to think,
39
Quick! Pull that hand away, and get it to the sink
40
There's a telegraph line,
41
You got yours and I got mine.
42
It's called the nervous system,
43
And everybody understands
44
Those telegram commands
45
And you know that everybody better listen!
46
Your peripheral nerves,
47
They go all out,
48
Delivering those messages
49
Your senses send out.
50
>From your hearing and touch
51
To your sight and taste and smell,
52
They let your brain react
53
To all the messages they tell.
54
Dit dittle dittle dit
55
Dit dittle dittle dit
56
Dit dittle dittle dit
57
There's a telegram for you, kid,
58
And it's at an awful time.
59
It says you've gotta go on stage
60
And you forgot your lines
61
You're gonna be embarrassed,
62
'Cause this telegram's a rush.
63
Your heart starts beatin' faster and you blush!
64
Hey, there's a telegraph line,
65
You got yours and I got mine.
66
It's called the nervous system,
67
And everybody understands
68
Those telegram commands
69
And you know that everybody better listen!
70
The autonomic system
71
Has a hold of you,
72
Controlling automatically
73
Some things that you do.
74
Your breathing and your heartbeat
75
Just go on naturally
76
And when you're scared, your nerves
77
Rev up the speed!
78
Dit dittle dittle dit
79
Dit dittle dittle dit
80
Dit dittle dittle dit
81
Hey, there's a telegraph line,
82
You got yours and I got mine.
83
It's called the nervous system,
84
And everybody understands
85
Those telegram commands
86
And you know that everybody better listen!
