I am the very model of a modern Major-General
I've vegetable, animal, and mineral
I know the kings of England
And I quote the fights historical
Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical
I'm very well acquainted, too, matters mathematical
I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical
About I'm teeming with a lot o' news
(Hmm, lot of news.... Got it!)
With many cheerful facts
About the square of the hypotenuse
...
I'm very good at and differential calculus
I the scientific names of animalculous
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a Major-General
...
I know our mythic history
King Arthur's and Sir Caradoc's
I answer hard acrostics, I've a pretty taste for paradox
I in elegiacs all the crimes of Heliogabalus
In conics I can floor peculiarities parabolous
I can tell undoubted
Raphaels from Gerard and Zoffanies
I know the croaking chorus
From The Frogs of Aristophanes
Then I can hum a fugue
Of which I've heard the music's din afore
(Ooh, din afore, din afore... Got it!)
And whistle all the airs
From that infernal nonsense Pinafore
...
Then I can write a washing bill in Babylonic cuneiform
And tell you every of Caractacus's uniform
In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very of a modern Major-General
...
In fact
I know is by "mamelon" and "ravelin"
When I can tell at sight a Mauser rifle from a javelin
When such affairs as sorties
And surprises I'm more wary at
And I know precisely
What is meant by "commissariat"
When I have learnt
What progress has been made in modern gunnery
When I know more of tactics than a novice in a nunnery
In short, when I've a smattering of elemental strategy
(Oh, that's a one, strategy... Got it!)
You'll say a Major-General has never sat a-gee
...
For my military knowledge
Though I'm plucky and adventury
Has only been brought down
To the beginning of the century
But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral
I am the very model of a modern Major-General
...
(One more time?!)
