The Alien Invasion Song:
A Song About the Brain
let’s start with the limbic system slow motion
the almond like amygdala controls your emotions
the hippocampus organizes all of your memories,
and retrieves them when necessary
the thalamus sends through information
to the correct destinations
Broca’s area contains the speech controls
it causes figurative language to unfold
the hypothalamus keeps homeostasis stable
what you thought about the brain might’ve been a fable
the brain is a complex feature
a part of all sorts of creatures
in psychology, it is studied
and it’s the reason for some teachers
the spinal cord carries information
the medulla runs the autonomic functions
the things you don’t think about, like respiration
are also controlled by the brain’s formations
the cerebellum deals with movement and alertness
in the hind brain while the pons control consciousness
the corpus callosum connects two hemispheres
in the neocortex, where it’s needed to adhere
the brain stem connects the spinal cord
which is a part of the brain stem’s encore
make it old school now
the cerebrum is the largest area
divided into many subsections
two spheres to limit the hysteria
then four more for the final connection
lobes of frontal, temporal, parietal, occipital
each have a specific function in the total
the frontal deals with personality
temporal with hearing and memory
parietal incorporates all of the senses
and the occipital associates with vision
the cerebral cortex contains three others
the auditory cortex controls sound audio
the visual cortex is the vision organizer
then the motor cortex is the neuron contactor
the somatosensory cortex in the parietal lobe registers touch
the reticular formation regulates consciousness, but not much
Wernicke’s area recognizes speech
so that you can hear the pastors preach
the pituitary gland is involved in hormone secretion
and the alphabet was invented by the Phoenicians
