William Sanford "Bill" Nye (born November 27, 1955), popularly known as Bill Nye the Science Guy, is an American science educator, comedian, television host, actor, mechanical engineer, and scientist. He is best known as the host of the Disney/PBS children's science show Bill Nye the Science Guy (1993–1998) and for his many subsequent appearances in popular media as a science educator.
William Sanford Nye was born in Washington, D.C., the son of Jacqueline (née Jenkins; c. 1920–2000), a codebreaker during World War II, and Edwin Darby "Ned" Nye (died 1997), also a World War II veteran whose experience in a Japanese prisoner of war camp led him to become a sundial enthusiast. Nye is a fourth-generation Washington, D.C. resident on his father's side of the family. After attending Lafayette Elementary and Alice Deal Junior High in the city, he was accepted to the private Sidwell Friends School on a partial scholarship, graduating in 1973. He studied mechanical engineering at Cornell University, where one of his professors was Carl Sagan, and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in 1977. He was awarded an honorary doctorate by The Johns Hopkins University in May 2008. In May 2011, Nye was awarded an Honorary Doctor of Science degree from Willamette University where he was the keynote speaker for that year's commencement exercises.
I would part the waters if you said so
I would shift the currents if you had to row
I would part the waters if you said so
I would shift the currents if you had to row
Do you believe in fate, Baby
Ask me, ask me
Do you fly in the day, Darlin'
Take me, shake me
If I look closer, holler, it's out there
Breathe close and deep, Darlin', it's our nightmare
Do you believe in fate, Baby
Ask me, ask me
Do you fly in the day Darlin'
Take me, shake me
I'm slight before light, grab me and take flight
I would part the waters
I would part the waters
I would part the waters
I would part the waters
Do you believe in fate, Baby
Ask me, ask me
Do you fly in the day Darlin'
Take me, shake me
I'm slight before light, grab me and take
Do you believe in fate, Baby
Ask me, ask me
