Mathematics Paradise Lyrics & Tabs by The Klein Four
Mathematics Paradise
guitar chords lyrics
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of math
I take a look at my life and realize there's none left
'Cause I've been deriving and proving so long that
Even my advisor thinks that my mind is gone
But I ain't never proved a theorem that didn't deserve it
He be treated like a lemma, you know that's unheard of
You better watch how I'm talking, and where I'm walking,
Or you and your homies might get covered in chalk
I really ain't that smooth, but I gotta hope
You convolute me with a function so I get a slope, fool
I'm the kind T.A. the little majors wanna be like
In my office late at night, grading papers that ain't right
Been spendin' most our lives in a mathematics paradise
Prove theorems once or twice in a mathematics paradise
Big stipend pays the price in a mathematics paradise
Been spendin' most our lives in a mathematics paradise
Prove theorems once or twice in a mathematics paradise
Big stipend pays the price in a mathematics paradise
A bigger one would sure be nice in a mathematics paradise
My thesis situation has got me pacin'
Operator algebras on a smooth manifold
So I gotta be down with d-z-bar,
Anti-involution product got me seein' stars
I'm a educated fool, K-theory on my mind,
Piece of chalk in my hand and a gleam in my eye
I'm a fifth-year grad, so don't keep me longer
And my thesis is down, it can't get any stronger, fool
Defense ain't nothin' but a quarter away
A post-doc at M. I. T.? What can I say?
I'm twenty-three now, but when I live to be thirty-four
A Fields Medal, maybe? I don't know.
Tell me why is pi defined to be
3.141592653?
Been spendin' most our lives in a mathematics paradise
Prove lemmas once or twice in a mathematics paradise
Big stipend pays the price in a mathematics paradise
A bigger one would sure be nice in a mathematics paradise
Power of the series, series of the power,
Every morning missing shower after shower
Everybody's running, but half of them ain't lookin' what's going on in the classroom
'Cause they're too busy sniffin'
They say I got to learn, but they have no time to teach me
If I can't understand that, how can they reach me?
I guess they can't, I guess I won't,
I guess I'm stuck. That's why I know my life is out of luck, fool
Been spendin' most our lives in a mathematics paradise
Prove theorems once or twice in a mathematics paradise
Sometimes we prove them thrice in a mathematics paradise
And our advisors give advice in a mathematics paradise
Tell me why are we so blind to state
e is 2.71828?
Tell me why is pi defined to be
3.141592653?

Been spendin' most our lives in a mathematics paradise
Prove theorems once or twice in a mathematics paradise
A conjecture would suffice in a mathematics paradise
We don't got no social lives in a mathematics paradise
