I was seven
when I realized your intellectual acumen
...until then it had all sounded superhuman!

For every question, you had a solution
You taught me algebra and simple substitution,
...and taught how every moment makes a contribution.

Playing Bazooka with you all-day
-- disobeying the rules and going disarray!
are memories that’ll never wear away.

Your newspaper and toothpicks I would sneak away,
yet you’ll keep my troubles at bay
-- by making mom and dad shoo away!

Come what may
...I could just peacefully hit the hay.
Those are my best days
to look back on, any day!
