Lyrics
Sometimes cold temperatures can be a warm blanket for the brain.
Listen to the cooling science.
When a brand new baby has a bumpy little start
And needs a little rescue for their head and heart
Biomedical engineers have a cool design
A special blue cap that is frosty and fine
Chilled water flowing through microscopic tracks
Like a gentle winter helmet that
Susan relaxes. Cooling down the brain to 91 degrees.
Gentle as an autumn morning peppermint breeze.
When brain cells are chilled, they take a little nap.
Protected underneath a special cooling cap.
Slowing down metabolism,
giving them a rest.
Putting all the healing to the scientific test.
The cooling helmet, gentle and bright
Guarding baby's brain through the quiet night
Tilled water circulating round and round
Peaceful as fresh snow falling on the ground
Biometric precision, decimal by decimal
Protecting little lives in a way so incredible
Cool heel rest for 72 hours
Biomedical engineering superpowers
A closed loop computer watches every single sign
Keeping the temperature right along the line
Heat exchanger cooling, The circulating stream
Making sure the baby has a sweet healing dream
Slowly,
gently Warming back up to the day
Healthy and ready
To grow and play
The cooling helmet, gentle and bright
Guarding baby's brain through the quiet night
Chilled water circulating round and round
Peaceful as fresh snow falling on the ground
Biomed precision, decimal by decimal
Protecting little lives in a way so incredible
Cool heel rest for 72 hours
Biomedical engineering superpowers
Sleep so calm
Rest so deep
Cooling water flows
Promises we keep
Now warm up slow here comes the morning glow
The cooling helmet,
gentle and bright Guarding baby's brain through the quiet night
Chilled water circulating round and round
Peaceful as fresh snow falling on the ground
Biomec precision, decimal by decimal
Protecting little lives in a way so incredible
Cool heel rest for 72 hours
Biomedical engineering superpowers
Safe and sound
Warmed up and healthy
