In My Liver

(To the tune of “And I Love Her”) / Recording by David Simmons

If I am missing meals
On busy days
That’s when my body steals
Glucose away
From my liver

It starts with glucagon
When I’m weak kneed
The hormone acts to spawn
New energy
In my liver

Bridge
The signaling
Acts rapidly
c-A-M-P’s
Fire up kinase

Phosphorylase then gets
Re-activated
So glycogen begets
Glucose phosphated
In my liver

(Instrumental)

Then in the last step here
A phosphatase
Makes phosphate disappear
With no delays
In my liver
