I Didn't Discover Gravity

When an apple hit me on the head, I thought that I'd discovered gravity.
But when I told a lot of people about my theory, they all laughed at me.
When I tried to explain what gravity is, they said they already knew it.
It seems that a Physicist named Newton beat me to it.
I also discovered that E equals MC Squared.
But Einstein also beat me to it, life is unfair.
I told Al Gore that I invented the Plasma TV and he said that he invented the internet.
When he and I tell people about what we think we've invented, it's something we regret.
Every time that I make a scientific discovery, things go from bad to worse.
I'd give anything to be able to be the one who discovers something first.
