Show me a ^sign! \end{verse} \begin{refren} So I thought ^{Ami}back to Calcu^{Dmi7}lus. \\ Way back to ^{G}Newton and to Leibniz, \\ And to ^{Cmaj7}problems just like this. \\ ^{Fmaj7}And just like that when I had ^{Hmi7}given up all hope, \\ I said ^{Esus4}nope, there's just one ^{E}way to find that slope. \end{refren} \begin{refren} And so now ^I, I will de^rive. \\ Find the ^derivative of x position ^with respect to time. \\ It's as ^easy as can be, just have to ^take dx/dt. \\ I will de^rive, I will de^rive. Hey, hey! \end{refren} Mezihra stejnÄ› jako sloka. \begin{verse} And then I ^went ahead to the ^second part. \\ But as I ^looked at it I wasn't sure quite ^how to start. \\ It was ^asking for the time at ^which velocity \\ Was at a ^maximum, and I was ^thinking "Woe is me." \end{verse} \begin{verse} But then I ^thought, this much I ^know. \\ I've gotta ^find acceleration, set it ^equal to zero. \\ Now ^if I only knew what the ^function was for a. \\ ^I guess I'm gonna have to ^solve for it someway. \end{verse} \begin{refren} So I thought ^back to Calcu^lus. \\ Way back to ^Newton and to Leibniz, \\ And to ^problems just like this. \\ ^And just like that when I had ^given up all hope, \\ I said ^nope, there's just one ^way to find that slope. \end{refren} \begin{refren} And so now ^I, I will de^rive. \\ Find the ^derivative of velocity ^with respect to time. \\ It's as ^easy as can be, just have to ^take dv/dt. \\ I will de^rive, I will de^rive. \end{refren} \begin{refren} So I thought ^back to Calcu^lus. \\ Way back to ^Newton and to Leibniz, \\ And to ^problems just like this. \\ ^And just like that when I had ^given up all hope, \\ I said ^nope, there's just one ^way to find that slope. \end{refren} \begin{refren} And so now ^I, I will de^rive. \\ Find the ^derivative of x position ^with respect to time. \\ It's as ^easy as can be, just have to ^take dx/dt. \\ I will de^rive, I will de^rive, I will derive! \end{refren} \end{song}
