Corrosion, what do you know?
Degradation, you are right though
It’s the gradual destruction
Of metals by chemical reaction
Moist atmosphere, water and air
Are the conditions, they aren't rare
Is there only a type of it?
No, you are wrong, don’t rather quit
Effects of corrosion, I think you know
Stress, crevice, inter-granular, our knowledge is low
Rusting is a part of this law
It’s just not only the one, there’s the flaw
This process is too slow
It cannot happen within a blow
The metals degrade into its form
Into sulfides, oxides, and it’s a norm
As prevention is the first measure
You can coat it with all pleasure
Corrosion, it’s still vast
A tortoise pace, not so fast
