May the mass times acceleration be with you
Though I know a lot about cars,
My humor wouldn’t get a 2:2
I’m no poet but I can quantitatively calculate the circumference of a circle
That’s just to prove I can use alliteration
Though I’m not very verbal
With pretty girls I try and make conversation
I’m no poet but I can speak Spanish, Italian, French and in Joules
Some say those are the languages of love
Though I try to play by the rules
From a lab I once stole a safety glove
I’m no poet but my University discovered graphene
I can use simple ABAB rhymes
The Charpy pendulum is my favourite machine
A screw dislocation glides and an edge one climbs
And as you will soon see
AABB rhyming is no problem to me
Grinding and polishing a sample are part of my day
Yet, living in Fallowfield, north campus is a long way away
I’m no poet and have Design instead of a dissertation
I’m no poet but understand the technique called repetition
I’m no poet and don’t have many lectures in the Tin Can
I’m no poet but maybe I am
