I am very pleased that Mr. Tim Karplus has made a professional recording of this song (complete song downloadable HERE) and others can be downloaded HERE. You will need to unzip the file to release the MP3. I am providing all songs for free download, but hope you will support this effort by purchasing my Metabolic Melody albums or calendar at the URLs at the bottom of the lyrics to this song.

Oh Delta G - the change in Gibbs free energy
Can tell us if a process will advance
'Cause if the value's less than naught it translates that
Reverse reactions haven't got a chance

But when the sign is plus it is the opposite
And then the backwards happens all the time
A factor is the standard Gibbs free energy
So don't forget about the delta G naught prime
