That format wouldn’t work, because ANYTHING you can do I can do better, and Venn Diagrams have parts outside of one circle, and part is not all.

It amazes me that people don’t get this, but it is an old song. Annie, get your gun! I liked it!

True…but it would be really hard to represent that visually in a way that people could understand (considering that people misunderstand this one), and I don’t think the result is as funny.

The Ethel Merman-Miss Piggy version rocked!

To be able to do something “better” the other person has to be able to do it. So, it should be the same set, not a subset.

This is a Venn diagram of “Anything you can do I can do better.” For all x, if you can do x, then I can do x better. The class of things I can do better contains everything in the class of things you can do.

But that wouldn’t reflect the grammar of the song.

Wouldn’t this be better as “how well you can do things”, “how well I can do them”?

Of course it’s valid. It’s pie.

Sure. It’s a Venn diagram where rather than both circles intersecting, one circle engulfs the other.

Should be a Venn diagram instead.

Is that even a valid type of graph?
