Lyrics
the Imperial System vs. the Metric System
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Inches and miles, pounds and stones,
A world of measures, all of our own.
But across the globe, a system so neat,
Meters and grams, so easy to meet.
[Chorus]
Imperial versus metric, a timeless debate,
Which one's superior, we constantly contemplate.
From Fahrenheit to Celsius, and pounds to kilograms,
Each system has its merits, each with its own program.
[Verse 2]
Ounces and gallons, quarts and pints,
A tapestry of units, in our sights.
But kilometers and liters, they seem to prevail,
Efficiency and logic, they never fail.
[Chorus]
Imperial versus metric, a timeless debate,
Which one's superior, we constantly contemplate.
From Fahrenheit to Celsius, and pounds to kilograms,
Each system has its merits, each with its own program.
[Bridge]
From the land of the free to nations afar,
Measurements shape the way we are.
But in this divide, can we find common ground?
A universal language, in which unity is found.
[Bridge]
From the land of the free to nations afar,
Measurements shape the way we are.
But in this divide, can we find common ground?
A universal language, in which unity is found.
[Verse 3]
Yards and feet, acres and square miles,
A legacy entrenched, for miles and miles.
Yet centimeters and hectares, they pave the way,
For global harmony, come what may.
[Chorus]
Imperial versus metric, a timeless debate,
Which one's superior, we constantly contemplate.
From Fahrenheit to Celsius, and pounds to kilograms,
Each system has its merits, each with its own program.
[Outro]
In this world of measures, let's bridge the divide,
Embrace the differences, let unity abide.
For whether it's inches or centimeters we decree,
It's the unity in diversity that sets us free.
[End]
