Re: Smart is Cool (a new FIRST song)
Here are the lyrics:
Smart is Cool
Music and lyrics by Calvin Simmons of 31 North Entertainment
Chorus
Real world learnin: design, built, test
FIRST Team Robotics at its best
For Inspiration Recognition of Science Technology
Dean Kamen Segway, check the chronology
Lego League robotics Vex Competition
And we set goals bring 'em all to fruition
You know I'm singin' 'bout FIRST, you know the rules
And we teach students that bein' smart is cool
Gotta get busy got a deadline in a week
If it wasn't for my parents, I don't think I would ever sleep
Got a MicroChip controller, got it dirt cheap
Gotta finish my robot and it's gonna be sweet
And when I sleep and I see omni-wheels and tank treads
Roller chains, screws, sprockets all in my head
My design is so hot it's borderline toxic
Just call me Mr. FIRST Team Top Robotic
In the shop, engineer to the core
And somebody please get those grippers off the floor
This task is the world's greatest mind test
On track to be the next great scientist
Havin fun while learnin a life skill
Also gaining character and a winnin' will
I can build any design you hand to me
FIRST team where dreams become reality
Chorus
Me and my team, we on a quest
All we do is design, build, test
Havin trouble with the automode
The software team re-works the C Code
Compile it, debug it, and then we run it
Pretty smooth, cause we do it all on a budget
I listen close as my mentor begins to teach
Learnin career goals previously beyond reach
And it's important that we listen (that we listen)
The goal is the Finals of the robotics competition
And we all win, no matter the team
It's not if you win or lose, it's how you play the game
Havin fun while learnin a life skill
Also gaining character and a winnin' will
I can build any design you hand to me
FIRST team where dreams become reality
Chorus
Chorus
