It brings back the sound of music so tender,
It brings back a night of tropical splendour,
It brings back a memory ever green.

You all have learned reliance
On the sacred teachings of Science,
So I hope, through life, you will never decline
In spite of philistine
Defiance
To do what all good scientists do.
Experiment.
Make it your motto day and night.
Experiment
And it will lead you to the light.

And when they ask us, how dangerous it was,
Oh, we'll never tell them, no, we'll never tell them:
We spent our pay in some café
And fought wild women night and day,
'Twas the cushiest job we ever had.
Cole Porter
