I'd like to say right out
That math 's a thing, no doubt
The other sciences would be lost without
It's true, it's true
Albert Einstein says it's true
And if Einstein says it's true, it's true, it's true
But as a scientist
I really must insist
That it is physics that ought to head the list
That's right, that's right
Stephen Hawking says that's right
And if Hawking says that's right, that's right, that's right
But, boys, I can not see
How you can not agree
That the most important is chemistry
Oh yes, oh yes
President Conant says oh yes
And if Conant says oh yes, oh yes, oh yes
But after all is said
Math is way ahead
Who else can do research while lying in bed?
It's true, etc.
The atom bomb's a bit
Of genius, you'll admit
Just think of all the people we've killed with it
That's right, etc.
But listen here to me
Where would your A-bombs be
If it were not for little old chemistry?
Oh yes, etc.
But let me make the point
There's things that should be loint
Besides inventing ways to blow up the joint
It's true, etc.
I really can't condemn
The guys who take up chem
For learning how to cook may appeal to them
That's right, etc.
But you can be sure, chum
That in the years to come
We are the guys you 're gonna be hearin' from
Math
Physics
Chemistry
That's us
