[Verse 1]
 
D                       A
Albert is smart, he's a genius
Bm                   E            A
Watch Albert putter, an obvious genius
E7                                N.C.
Someday he will reassess the world
E7                                    N.C.
And he'll still have time for lots of girls
 
[Verse 2]
 
D                      A
When he grows up he'll remember us
Bm                           E                   A
When he grows up we are sure that he'll remember us
E7                                   N.C.
We made sure that Albert wore his mac
E7
We kept all the strangers off his back

(Go away) everything's relative

(Go away Albert's mother does say to me) we are his relatives and he don't need any non-relatives

D5             C#5
Talent is an asset
       D5                C#5    A5
You've got to understand that
D5             C#5
Talent is an asset
    D5                C#5    A5
And little Albert has it
D5             C#5
Talent is an asset
    D5                C#5
And Albert surely has it

D                              A
One day he'll sever his apron strings
Bm                        E                  A
All of the while he'll be scribbling things, genius things
E7                              N.C.
Look at Albert, isn't he a sight
E7
Growing, growing at the speed of light
