Joe Chammas - The Great Inventor Lyrics

He said ain't it strange
How I've affected change
Moreso than any lighted stage
He toiled away for a hundred days
The gears and wires never left his gaze

And in a moment he saw it clearly
Like Newton's apple or Einstein's theory
So here's to you my friend and mentor
Here's to you, the great inventor

He stood, not much to lose
In search of a different muse
The time came, he got to choose
Excitement grew he could not hide
He woke his love sleeping at his side

And said dear I've got it, I've found the plot
And he made off quick to her father's shop
So here's to you my friend and mentor
Here's to you, the great inventor

We are all capable of more
We are all capable of more
We are capable, we are capable
We are capable, we are capable

And though infrequent, our time was right
So before we part ways into the night
We raise our glasses to friends and mentors
Here's to you, the great inventor
