Lyrics
Jams beware!
Here comes the super steam!
Lock the heavy door!
Before a surgeon picks up a forceps or a blade, a very special
journey has got to be made.
Into the sterile processing department down below
Where the biggest pressure cookers put on a show
It's called an autoclave
Thick stainless steel With a giant radial door and a locking
wheel Load in the trays, wrap them up in blue
We're about to make every tool sparkly new
Pump in the steam, squeeze up the heat 270
degrees,
can't be beat 30 pounds of pressure inside of the tank
Toughest sanitizing station in the hospital bay
The super steam machine could buy to the germs
Sanitizing tools on our own clean terms
Hiss, hiss, cook, turn up the heat.
No microscopic bug can survive that defeat.
Sterile and shiny, ready for the trade.
Protecting every patient every single day.
Biomed steam power, spotless and clean.
The toughest little pressure chamber you've ever seen.
We put a tiny tube of harmless spores inside
To see if any tough bacteria could survive the ride
Take it to the lab, incubate it overnight
If it stays purple, the autoclave is running right
Biomeds check the gaskets, test the steam trap vent
Making sure the superheated steam is properly spent
The super steam machine,
goodbye to the germs
Sanitizing tools on our own clean terms
Hiss, hiss, cook, turn up the heat
No microscopic bug can survive that defeat feet.
Sterile and shiny, ready for the trade.
Protecting every patient every single day.
Biomed, steam power spotless and clean.
The toughest little pressure chamber you've ever seen.
Steam goes in.
Pressure climbs up. Bake it for four minutes.
Pop the the vacuum dry, dry it out, 100
sterile.
The super steam machine, goodbye to the germs,
sanitizing tools on our own clean terms.
Hiss, hiss, cook, turn
the heat No microscopic bug can survive that defeat
Sterile and shiny, ready for the trade
Protecting every patient every single day
Biomed, steam, power, spotless and clean
The toughest little pressure chamber you've ever seen
Door hard unlocked
Tools sparkling
Zero germs allowed
