Tom Lehrer - Don't Major in Physics Lyrics



Tom Lehrer - Don't Major in Physics Lyrics




Oh, I once loved a sweet Physics student
The loveliest girl one could find
But I tried to get close and I cudent
For she said that she wasn't "That kind"
More often a king weds a commoner
Than a physicist makes a housewife
For they only are versed in phenomener
That have nothing to do with real life

So don't ever major in Physics
Try History, English, or Gov
For you may learn a lot about science
But you won't learn a thing about love

Oh, I too loved a young Physics major
She was pretty and healthy and pure
But I wouldn't take one now on a wager
For they all are like her, I am sure
She didn't like couches or hammocks
Or walks in the moonlight for two
All she thought of was thermodynammocks
So what, tell me what, could I do?

Now I have the opposite status
I like physics and my girl does not
I tried showing her my apparatus
But a blank smile was all that I got
She asked me why I was in Physics
And advised me to transfer to Ec
And whenever I tried to talk Physics
All she wanted to do was to neckl (ugh)
