I’ve been excavating sulfur
All the live long day,
Manufacturing some compounds,
Just to pass the time away.

Fertilizers and explosives,
Acid for your batteries and more,
Don’t you know they all are made from
H₂SO₄?

What’s that awful smell? What’s that awful smell?
Rotten eggs is what I guess, I guess.
What’s that awful smell? What’s that awful smell?
No, I think it’s H2S.
