There once was a man we called Sam
Who deep down inside was a ham
As he quoted the Bard
We docents tried hard
Not to snicker and get in a jam.
There was an old gent at the desk
Who said, “You Docents are all such a mess!”
“You leave the lights on,
And set off the alarm,
And give to me nothing but stress!”
There once was a man who loved Joyce
He would quote from his works with good voice
And on each June sixteen
He would grow very keen,
To throw up his armss and rejoice!
We all know the gent known as Sam
Who is quite a Renaissance man.
From Shakespeare to Dickens
They make his pulse quicken
He reads them as fast as he can!
There once was a wise man named Sam
Who loved to read books that were banned
From Cervantes to Joyce
They all have a voice
On this he will take a firm stand!
We all know a great guy named SAM,
Who deep down inside is a lamb,
Though he rumbles and roars,
He’s the one we adore,
He’s the Rosenbach’s own, “Sam I Am”!
