A lithium dose just might cure your depression

but carbon is a girls best friend.

Gold may be grand but it wont start a fire in y our

BBQ or put the toot in your choo-choo.

Life on Earth is carbon based.

It came here on rocks from outer space and

formed organic compounds till

the carbon-cycle went round and round!

There may come a time when you need to do some

squeezing - carbon is your hardest friend!

There may come a time when a substrate is needed

to deposit your film on.

Well just sputter it on a hard diamond.

If you have some lubing to do

then graphite is the allotrope for you.

Or if your into Ages then carbon-14 will date it.

Ive heard of attempts to make hard carbon nitride

but diamonds always win in the end!

Ive heard that we need to make something much cleaner

to put in our cars or else we wont get very far.



Cuz time rolls on and supplies will be gone

of diamonds, coal and petroleum.

But nanotechnology can build anything with fullerenes!
