Hark the Sucrose

(to the tune of "Hark the Herald")

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.

Carbohydrates all should sing
Glory to the Haworth ring

Anomeric carbons hide
When they're in a glycoside

Glucopyranose is there
In the boat or in the chair

Alpha, beta, D and L
Di-astere-omer hell

Alpha, beta, D and L
Di-astere-omer hell
