I Weigh With Kilos by Jimmy Vann and Richard Hieronymus Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1976

[Verse 1]
All alround the world today, the kilo is the measure
A kilo- is one thousand grams, easy to remember
A milli- is one thousandth of
A centi- is one hundredth
A kilo is one thousand, pretend you remember

[Verse 2]
When we measure kilograms, [?] weight is common usage
And when we weigh with kilograms, mass is what we measure
A milli- is one thousandth of
A centi- is one hundredth
A kilo is one thousand, pretend you remember

[Verse 3]
To understand a kilogram, I simply weigh some water
I quickly find a liter holds a kilogram of water
A milli- is one thousandth of
A centi- is one hundredth
A kilo is one thousand, pretend you remember
[Verse 4]
When I weigh a liter of milk, it weighs about a kilo
A kilo- is one thousand grams, easy to remember
A milli- is one thousandth of
A centi- is one hundredth
A kilo is one thousand, pretend you remember
