[00:00:00] Lobachevsky - Tom Lehrer

[00:00:05] Who made me the genius I am today

[00:00:08] The mathematician that others all quote

[00:00:11] Who's the professor that made me that way

[00:00:13] The greatest that ever got chalk on his coat

[00:00:17] One man deserves the credit

[00:00:18] One man deserves the blame

[00:00:30] In one word he told me secret of success in mathematics

[00:00:34] Plagiarize

[00:00:37] Plagiarize

[00:00:38] Let no one else's work evade your eyes

[00:00:41] Remember why the good lord made your eyes

[00:01:07] Locally euclidean parameterization of infinitely differentiable

[00:01:09] Riemannian manifold

[00:01:11] Bozhe moi

[00:01:13] This I know from nothing

[00:01:16] But I'm going to do

[00:01:19] I think of great lobachevsky and get idea ahah
