El Corazón

Hard 'n Phirm Hard 'n Phirm

The heart

Day and night
in constant rhythm
operates inside the human body
a wonderful machine:
the heart

The human heart,
a four-chambered hollow organ
Deoxygenated blood enters
the right atrium of the cava venae

When the atrium contracts
blood flows into the right ventricle
And...to the lungs for purification
While purified blood is dislodged
through the left ventricle to the ends

The heart is a muscular bubble
that maintains circulation
of the blood of our life

Lube-dub, lube-dub, lube-dub, lube-dub
Sounds familiar?
These are the sounds of the valves
opening and closing
from heart

Aorta!
You are the largest artery
in the body
Aorta!
You are the same width as
a garden hose

The heart is a muscular bubble
that maintains circulation
of the blood of our life

can continue to beat
after elimination from the body
as we see in the heart of this turtle

The Arena Rock Ensemble Corazón
had a number one hit
in '87 with the song

"Alone"

"Alone"

From animated actions of our childhood
to... the sitting step of old age
the heart beats two and a half billion times
(approximately)

So... he's dead!
