An Ode To Super Glue
Cyanoacrylate what a super glue,
It's amazing what you can make with cyanide,
Who'd have thought a poison would make such a good glue,
These chemists are clever people.
Glues fingers together faster than anything else on earth,
Always handy in a sticky situation,
Shops know it doesn't stick around on shelves for long,
It's a glue we can all bond with.
Fixing awkward cuts in A and E departments,
Finding finger prints in forensics laboratories,
Loved by modellers making multi-media kits,
Great for fixing all those broken knick-knacks around the house.
The one's in plastic bottles are my favourites,
Keep'em cool and dry it'll last a year or more,
If it's thickening-up it's past it's best.
Great for frosting up clear plastics,
If you're making model houses that's a tip for making bathroom windows,
To keep clear plastics clear coat them with PVA glue first.
