Iron the Red Atom Molecule

It's not Christmas, but for all the kids facing finals, sing this to the tune of "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer":

There was Cobalt and Argon and Carbon and Fluorine
Silver and Boron and Neon and Bromine
But do you recall
the most famous element of all?

Iron the red atom molecule
had a very shiny orbital
And if you ever saw him
You'd enjoy his magnetic glow

All of the other molecules
used to laugh and call him Ferrum
They never let poor Iron
join in any reaction games.

Then one inert Chemistry eve
Santa came to say
Iron with your orbital so bright
won't you catalyze the reaction tonight?

Then how the atoms reacted
and combined in twos and threes
Iron the red atom molecule
you'll go down in Chemistry!
