The first law of thermodynamics
Heat is work and work is heat
(Heat is work and work is heat)
The second law of thermodynamics
Heat cannot of itself pass from one body to a hotter body
(Heat cannot of itself pass from one body to a hotter body)
Heat won't pass from a cooler to a hotter
(Heat won't pass from a cooler to a hotter)
You can try it if you like but you far better notter
(You can try it if you like but you far better notter)
'Cause the cold in the cooler will be hotter as a ruler
('Cause the cold in the cooler will be hotter as a ruler)
Because the hotter body's heat will pass to the cooler
Heat is work and work is heat
And work is heat and heat is work
Heat will pass by conduction
(Heat will pass by conduction)
And heat will pass by convection
(And heat will pass by convection)
And heat will pass by radiation
(And heat will pass by radiation)
And that's a physical law
Heat is work and work's a curse
And all the heat in the universe
Is gonna cool down as it can't increase
Then there'll be no more work
And there'll be perfect peace
Really?
Yeah, that's entropy, man!
And all because of the second law of thermodynamics,
which lays down
That you can't pass heat from a cooler to the hotter
Try it if you like but you'd far better notter
'Cause the cold in the cooler will get hotter as a ruler
'Cause the hotter body's heat will pass to the cooler
Oh, you can't pass heat from a cooler to a hotter
You can try it if you like but you'd far better notter
'Cause the cold in the cooler will get hotter as a ruler
That's the physical law
Ooh, I'm hot!
What? That's because you've been working
Oh, Beatles? Nothing!
That's the first and second law of thermodynamics
