Once upon a time in library land, I was looking for information man. I couldnt find it anywhere. Books scattered everywhere. Books over here, books over there, books everywhere, man . . . I swear! So I said there needs to be, organization in the library. Use numbers, one, two, three, and name that system after me! (Chorus) My Dewey Decimal System classifies information son. My Dewey Decimal System organizes information son. My Dewey Decimal System is so very easy to use. My Dewey Decimal System . . . here is what you got to do! Say 000! Generalities. Say 100! Philosophy & Psychology. Say 200! Religion. Say 300! Social Sciences. Say 400! Language. Say 500! Natural Sciences. Say 600! Technology. Say 700! Artistic Stuff. Say 800! Literature. Say 900! Geography & History. (Chorus) But Melville . . . can you tell me where to find info on sharks please? Yeah! I can. No problem. I type it into my computer and . . . KA-BLAM! 597.3 Sharks. But Melville . . . can you tell me where to find info on Italian Recipes please? Yeah! I can. No problem. I type it into my computer and . . . KA-BLAM! 641.8 Italian Recipes.
