When you?ve got yourself a good idea
And that magical solution just seems to appear
Yeah you could be from New York or Paris, London or Topeka
When that learning light comes on you say, ?Ah Ha Uhuh Eureka!?
CHORUS
Aha, uhuh, eureka
Aha, uhuh, eureka
Aha, uhuh, eureka
Say, ah ha ha hoo hoo
It?s a natural part of being alive
It?s like learning to swim so you can jump in and dive
Go tell Jim and John and Suzy and your favorite friend Shemeka
You can say it all together, say, ?Ah Ha Uhuh Eureka!?
Chorus
Who do you think you are?
You?re a cosmic child, you?re connected to a star
You can live your life with joy, you got that right
To thine own self be true, you?ve got to shine out with your bright light
(Instrumental)
When you?ve got yourself a good idea
And that magical solution just seems to appear
Yeah you could be from New York or Paris, London or Topeka
When that learning light comes on you say, ?Ah Ha Uhuh Eureka!?
Chorus
