Very good concept. Blackalicious' "Chemical Calisthenics" also fits nicely.

I love a good theme - I may steal this concept and include some others. You get every single element if you include Tom Lehrer's "The Elements". I'd also include Sweet's "Love Like Oxygen", Graham Parker's "Mercury Poisoning", XTC's "Gold" (or "Neon Shuffle"), Marc Bolan's "Zinc Rider", and Jawbox's "Iodine".
