Knowledge in the Air


Hydraulic science over here
And Nietzsche over there.
Month after month, and year on year;
There's knowledge in the air.

They sit by their computer screens
Lost in a dreamy stare
Ringed in by books and magazines;
There's knowledge in the air.

Matisse and Einstein, Burke and Klee,
Vivaldi and Voltaire
Dance round the desks invisibly;
There's knowledge in the air.

Oh happy playground for the mind!
Oh scene without compare!
Let scholarship be unconfined!
There's knowledge in the air!
