“The Elements” by Tom Lehrer: Inspired this limerick

A vibrant 3D rendering of an atom against a black background. A textured, bumpy pink nucleus is at the center, surrounded by multiple glowing green and blue spheres representing electrons, orbiting on distinct, illuminated paths.

Tom Lehrer, with his wit quite refined,
Sang of elements in a list quite aligned.
But some isotopes there,
Caused a chemist to stare,
"Its atomic mass was never defined!"
