I went to class
Math, baby, just to see
I studied all the greats
To find hope for you and me

And listen dear
To what I found
It just ain't gonna work
There no way 'round

Tried to find the rate of change
As hope reaches zero for us
Tried to find our changing sum
But we just don't fit the calculus

Algebra class was just as rough
Too many x's and y's
To many unknown variables
To figure out all the why's

I finally settled on sets
Simple sums and addition
They gave me clues
To my condition

You see we just don't add up
A ten doesn't equal a one
The two don't belong together
So dear, I think we're done
