Alexander Graham Bell Richard Thompson

[Verse 1]
Alexander Graham Bell
Note the name and note it well
Father of the modern age
His inventions are all the rage
Of course there was the telephone
He'd be famous for that alone
But there's fifty other things as well
From Alexander Graham Bell
Now Edison had cylinders
But Bell made records flat
Which we remember gratefully
Whеn we play our floppy or CD
Of course therе was the telephone
He'd be famous for that alone
But there's fifty other things as well
From Alexander Graham Bell

[Verse 2]
Born in Scotland, moved away
To Canada and the USA
Studied speech, took a wife
Helped the deaf all his life
Came up with a threshing machine
Before he made it to a teen
After years of sweat and toil
He invented the hydrofoil
The respirator was his chance
To save his baby's life
And just like the Brothers Wright
He got heavily into flight
Of course there was the telephone
He'd be famous for that alone
But there's fifty other things as well
From Alexander Graham Bell
