He was a surgeon, neuro, even -
Although he didn’t know the difference between miles and hectares.
At the congress in Rio de Janeiro
Everybody else was small fry next to him.

He could turn folks who had just about had it
Into normal people again, but
This big star, alas,
Was a Jew.

In science he was used to fighting,
Everything was done step by step.
He put a new brain into the head
Of a certain pioneer.

He could turn folks who had just about had it
Into normal people again, but
This big star, alas,
Was a Jew.
