[WOMAN]
If just one student learns the beauty of aesthetics
Then that's fine
I need only one
Or if one student learns the wonders of poetics
Then he's mine
And my work here will be done
And if one student values structure
Learns that words can be valuable and fun
Show me twenty students who despise
The poems they have to memorize
Alright, I need only one
And if one student learns that books can be ecstatic
What the heck?
I don't need romance
If I've wasted my life being firm and autocratic
I'm a spec in an orbiting expanse
What I did was always well intentioned
And what's done, folks, is ultimately done
Give me eighty students who deplore
The fact that I demanded more
Screw 'em!
I need only
One student who rarely watches television
One student who understands the value of precision
If just one student learns the beauty of aesthetics
Then that's fine
I need only one
Or if one student learns the wonders of poetics
Then he's mine
And my work here will be done
And if one student values structure
Learns that words can be valuable and fun
Show me twenty students who despise
The poems they have to memorize

Screw 'em!
