[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ [G] _ [D] _
_ _ _ I am the very model of a model made in [A] general, of information, vegetable, animal and [D] mineral.
I know the kings of England and I quote the facts historical, from [E] Marathon to Waterloo
in [A] orders categorical.
I am very well acquainted to with [D] math as [C] mathematical.
I understand equations both the [F] simple and [A] quadratical.
If I pen a normal theorem I'm [Dm] teeming with a lot of [G] news.
Lot of news.
Ah!
[A#] With many cheerful facts about [A] the square of the hypotenuse. _ _
_ [E] _ _ I'm [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] very good at integral and differential calculus.
[A] I know the scientific names of being and [D] a man could listen to them.
I'm the very vegetable, [A] animal [D] and mineral.
[G] I am the [D] very model of a model made in general. _ _ _
I know a mythic history, King Arthur and the [A] paradox.
I answer hard acrostics, I have a pretty [D] taste for paradox.
I quote in the early tracts of the Cransville Gabber [A] and St.
Colest.
[E] I can throw [A] peculiarities, parabolous.
I can tell and doubt at Raphael, [Dm] St.
Gerald, Dous and [E] Sophonis.
I know the croaking chorus from the frogs of [F] [C#] Aristophanes.
Then I can numb a fugue which I've heard the [Dm] music's dinner for.
[C] Dinner for.
_ Ah!
And twist all the [A] ears from that infernal nonsense, Pinafore. _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] Then I can write a Washington and Babylonic [A] uniform and give you every detail of characteristic [D] uniform.
A child [F#m] is not as vegetable, animal and mineral.
[D] I am the [G] very model [D] of a model made in general. _ _
In [B] fact, when I know what is meant by mammal and rabble and [C#m] when [D] I can tell a sight or
mouth or rifle from a javelin, when such affairs as sorties and surprises I'm aware yet, [A] and
when I know precisely what is meant by commissariat, _ when I have learned what progress has been
[A#] made in modern gunnery, [E] when I know more of tactics than a [A#] novice in a nunnery, _ [A]
in [C#] short,
when I've a smattering of elemental strategy.
[A#]
Strategy.
_ Ah!
You'll say a better major general [A] has never sat at G.
_ _ _ [E] _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] This is my military knowledge of those plucky [A] and adventures, only from down to the beginning
[D] of the century.
[F#m] A child is not as vegetable, animal and [D] mineral.
I am the very model of a model made in general. _ _
