The Lyrics
freakin' logarithms caused a fall in grades
tell me, what's an exponent of ten ?
in math, there was a time when i got accolades
i understood the concepts, then
the logic i was followin' has gone astray
feelin' like i ain't too smart
there's little that i know about this disarray
i guess that it must be an art
brain, please tell me 'bout these cubes and squares
i really need to learn the way...i'm unaware
i end up only flustered and i blankly stare...far away
the logic i was followin' has gone astray
feelin' like i ain't too smart
there's little that i know about this disarray
i guess that it must be an art
brain, please tell me what i need to know
please find the sums before my temper blows
brain, time to start...you sure are movin' slow..so let's go
freakin' logarithms caused a fall in grades
tell me, what's an exponent of ten ?
in math, there was a time when i got accolades
i understood the concepts, then
oh, freakin' math is such a pain
does it matter ?...does it matter ?
oh oh oh...freakin' math is such a pain
does it matter ?...does it matter ?
tell me, what's an exponent of ten ?
in math, there was a time when i got accolades
i understood the concepts, then
the logic i was followin' has gone astray
feelin' like i ain't too smart
there's little that i know about this disarray
i guess that it must be an art
brain, please tell me 'bout these cubes and squares
i really need to learn the way...i'm unaware
i end up only flustered and i blankly stare...far away
the logic i was followin' has gone astray
feelin' like i ain't too smart
there's little that i know about this disarray
i guess that it must be an art
brain, please tell me what i need to know
please find the sums before my temper blows
brain, time to start...you sure are movin' slow..so let's go
freakin' logarithms caused a fall in grades
tell me, what's an exponent of ten ?
in math, there was a time when i got accolades
i understood the concepts, then
oh, freakin' math is such a pain
does it matter ?...does it matter ?
oh oh oh...freakin' math is such a pain
does it matter ?...does it matter ?

I was always bad in math, but I know three 5s when I see 'em.
This adds up to fives..
Flows along nicely with the OS. Great pacing and wordplay...555
thanks john AFW and rick
Wonderful as always Alvin...
I agree with JB and RC
Incidentally, Alvin, this is what I keep getting when I try to email you:
"Unable to deliver message to the following recipients, due to being unable to connect successfully to the destination mail server."
I suspect it is AOL my mail program (Hotmail) is objecting to, so I am going to try resending from my other server.... :-(

Whoa. I feel so old for remembering this song and all the words to it, and not only is the pacing perfect, but many of the rhymes are kept from the original, which is always a plus. (Pitter patter...) Besides, I hated math with a passion as well.
thanks merry, PMS and olvan
