[Chorus]
We are the lanthanoids, or the rare Earth metals
Fifty-seven to seventy-one on the periodic table!
[Verse 1]
I'm lanthanum, my symbol is "La"
My atomic number's fifty-seven and atomic mass is one-thirty-eight
I'm mostly used to make carbon arc lights, don't you know?
Which are used for studio lighting for a motion picture show
Hello there, I am cerium! My symbol is "Ce"
My atomic number's fifty-eight, my atomic mass is one-forty
I am used in motion picture arc lighting as well
I’m also used in flints for lighters, now isn’t that swell!
I'm praseodymium, my symbol is "Pr"
My atomic number's fifty-nine, one-forty's my atomic mass by far
My primary use is as an alloying agent
I make high strength metals used in aircraft engines
I'm neodymium, my symbol is "Nd"
My atomic mass is one-forty-four, my atomic number is sixty
I’m used when making goggles for glass blowers and welders
And I’m used in some glass to make spectrometers
My atomic number's sixty-one, I am promethium
My atomic mass is one-forty-five, and my symbol is "Pm"
I could be used to make a nuclear battery
With a lifespan of five years, that is satisfactory!
We are the lanthanoids, or the rare Earth metals
Fifty-seven to seventy-one on the periodic table!
