Hi guys! Xave Ruth here. I've been writing and performing weird funny songs for seven years and finally scratched together the funds to make my very own comedy special, completely independently and self-funded. It isn't easy for a little guy to make it in a comedy landscape completely dominated by Netflix, but this is my big shot. If you like this video I hope you'll consider buying the special at the link below. Some of the special can be found for free on this channel; the rest can be found in the full version.

This music here was written for a song much less ephemeral
Twas of the very model of a modern major general
Our man Tom Lehrer re-wrote the words in such a manner chemical
But face we now a problem of a making mostly temporal
The previous two verses were conceived of many years ago
But science marches on and therefore into verse 3 we must go
How wonderful the elements could be so sweetly synchronized
But in the intervening years 16 more have been synthesized
There’s oganesson, dubnium, meitnerium, rutherfordium
Nihonium, darmstadtium, flerovium, seaborgium
There’s tennessine, Lawrencium, moscovium, livermorium
Roentgenium, copernicium, (and) hassium, and bohrium
"There's Earth 🌍, and Air 💨, and Fire 🔥, and Water 💧..."

I have sent this comment to the piano player!

2 guys walked in a bar. One guy said “I’ll have H20”. The other goes “I’ll have H20 too. The other guy dies.
I’d make another joke, but all the good ones argon
well, if you can’t curium, then you must barium.
@@ckp09er why? Did they steal the elements of it?
Why would you give someone hydrogen peroxide for them to drink
"Bro who's bromine is this?"
"Bromine"
And
"I was about to make a sodium Joke but na"
absolutely beautiful expansion to the song.
“Ununennium, Unbilinium, Unbiunium, Unbibium, Unbitrium, Unbiquadrium, Unbipentium, Unbihexium, Unbiseptium and 2023 have joined the chat”
