Monera
Monera (Greek - μονήρης (monḗrēs), "single", "solitary") (/məˈnɪərə/ mə-NEER-ə) was a kingdom that contained unicellular organisms with a prokaryotic cell organization (having no nuclear membrane), such as bacteria. The taxon Monera was first proposed as a phylum by Ernst Haeckel in 1866. Subsequently, the phylum was elevated to the rank of kingdom in 1925 by Édouard Chatton. The last commonly accepted mega-classification with the taxon Monera was the five-kingdom classification system established by Robert Whittaker in 1969.
Under the three-domain system of taxonomy, introduced by Carl Woese in 1977, which reflects the evolutionary history of life, the organisms found in kingdom Monera have been divided into two domains, Archaea and Bacteria (with Eukarya as the third domain). Furthermore, the taxon Monera is paraphyletic (does not include all descendants of their most recent common ancestor), as Archaea and Eukarya are currently believed to be more closely related than either is to Bacteria. The term "moneran" is the informal name of members of this group and is still sometimes used (as is the term "prokaryote") to denote a member of either domain.

All Men Play On Ten
I MADE A ROCK'N'ROLL
WHEN I TRIED GIVIN' IN, TO MAKE MONEY HAD TO TURN DOWN LOW
THEY SAID, "WHY BE PROUD, DON'T PLAY SO LOUD, BE LIKE US
AND GET A SOUND THAT'S REAL THIN
WEAR A POLYESTER SUIT, ACT HAPPY, LOOK CUTE, GET A HAIRCUT
AND BUY SMALL GEAR"
THAT'S WHEN I TURNED TO THEM AND SAID, HOLD IT, RIGHT THERE
WELL IT'S MORE TO ME THAN JUST A JOB, AND WHILE I'M PLAYIN'
YOU WON'T GET ROBBED
NOBODY TELLS A MAN HOW TO PLAY, IT JUST AIN'T THAT WAY
HEY, HEY, HEY, CAN YOU HEAR ME SAY
ALL MEN PLAY ON TEN, NEVER GONNA TURN DOWN AGAIN
ALL MEN PLAY ON TEN, NEVER GONNA TURN DOWN AGAIN
I'M JET FUEL HONEY, PLUG ME INTO 220, STEP BACK AND LET
MY FINGERS FLY
WHILE I'M BURNING UP MY GEAR, THERE'S A FIRE IN YOUR EAR
THAT WON'T STOP UNTIL THE DAY YOU DIE
I REALLY PUT IT TO THE FLOOR WHEN I HEAR THE CROWD ROAR
OH, IT'S MUSIC TO MY EARS WHEN THEY SCREAM
THEN I RUN BACK THE POWER RACK AND DECK, ALL OF MY GEAR
WELL IT'S MORE TO ME THAN JUST A JOB, AND WHILE I'M PLAYING
YOU WON'T GET ROBBED
NOBODY TELLS A MAN HOW TO PLAY, IT JUST AIN'T THAT WAY
HEY, HEY, HEY, CAN YOU HEAR ME SAY
ALL MEN PLAY ON TEN, NEVER GONNA TURN DOWN AGAIN
ALL MEN PLAY ON TEN, NEVER GONNA TURN DOWN AGAIN
WELL IT'S MORE TO ME THAN JUST A JOB, AND WHILE I'M PLAYING
YOU WON'T GET ROBBED
NOBODY TELLS A MAN HOW TO PLAY, IT JUST AIN'T THAT WAY
HEY, HEY, HEY, CAN YOU HEAR ME SAY
ALL MEN PLAY ON TEN, NEVER GONNA TURN DOWN AGAIN
