I’m a tardigrade

Cryptobiotic renegade

In outer space I play

Anaerobic way

Water bear ballet

Every cell contracts

Every form refracts

Every hard impact

Trehalose counteracts

Moss piglet, tardigrade

Oh, can’t you see

In my anatomy

D-Sup resists radiation

Tolerance to desiccation

I’m a tardigrade

Cryptobiotic renegade

Through the burning blaze

Zero Kelvin days

Water bear, tardigrade

Suspend me in the vacuum of space

Gigapascal pressure can’t erase

Deprive me of food, of water, of air

Rehydrate my form - behold, I’m repaired!

Oh, can’t you see

In my anatomy

D-Sup resists radiation

Tolerance to desiccation

I’m a tardigrade

Cryptobiotic renegade

Through the burning blaze

Zero Kelvin days

Moss piglet, Water bear

I’m a tardigrade

In a gamma ray

Im immortal, I’ll be ok

I’m a tardigrade

(Cryptobiotic renegade)

(In outer space I play)

(Anaerobic way)

(Water bear ballet) I’m a tardigrade

I’m a tardigrade

I’m a tardigrade

whoo, hoo

(Tardigrade cavalcade)

(Water bear parade) I'm a tardigrade

I’m a tardigrade

I’m a tardigrade

I’m a tardigrade

(Every cell contracts)

(Every form refracts)

(Tardigrade cavalcade)

(Water bear parade) I'm a tardigrade
