When Isaac Newton wrote
The laws that we all quote,
It's now extremely apparent that he
Neglected to consider
Relativity
What focused our attention
On the fourth dimension?
We'd been doing so well with just three
'Twas Mister Einstein 's brain child
Relativity
And who would think
And who'd forecast
That bodies shrink
When they go fast?
It makes old Isaac's theory
Look w-e-o-ry
And so if you are near
When atom bombs appear
And you 're reduced to a pile of debris
You'll know it's largely due to
Relativity
