Lobachevsky

Who made me the genius I am today

The mathematician that others all quote?

Who's the professor that made me that way?

The greatest that ever got chalk on his coat

One man deserves the credit

One man deserves the blame

And Nicolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky is his name

Hi

Nicolai Ivanovich Lobach

I am never forget the day I first meet the great Lobachevsky

In one word he told me secret of success in mathematics

Plagiarize

Plagiarize

Let no one else's work evade your eyes

Remember why the good Lord made your eyes

So don't shade your eyes

But plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize

Only be sure always to call it please "Research"

And ever since I meet this man my life is not the same

And Nicolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky is his name

Hi

Nicolai Ivanovich Lobach

I am never forget the day I am given first original paper to write

It was on analytic and algebraic topology oflocally Euclidean

Metrization of infinitely differentiable Riemannian manifold

Bozhe moi

This I know from nothing

What I'm going to do

But I think of great Lobachevsky and get idea, ah, ah

I have a friend in Minsk

Who has a friend in Pinsk

Whose friend in Omsk

Has friend in Tomsk

With friend in Akmolinsk

His friend in Alexandrovsk

Has friend in Petropavlovsk

Whose friend somehow

Is solving now

The problem in Dnepropetrovsk

And when his work is done

Haha, begins the fun

From Dnepropetrovsk to Petropavlovsk

By way of Iliysk and Novorossiysk

To Alexandrovsk to Akmolinsk

To Tomsk to Omsk to Pinsk to Minsk

To me the new will run

Yes, to me the news will run

And then I write

By morning, night

And afternoon

And pretty soon

My name in Dnepropetrovsk is cursed
