Mathematics' an opinion
so said old Sir Isaac Newton
everyone can be a champion
if you can make two by two
automatic or fanatic
mind well all I say and do
If you can't afford the damage
don't pour custard in your shoes
if it's more than you can manage
don't sell oysters in Peru
Yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak
A pyramid is not cubic
that's a shape more anatomic
have you any sense of logic
for I sure haven't at all
I find most anti–economic
easy come and easy go
Dares anyone in the village
catch the lion by his tail?
Wouldn't it be a splendid marriage
a sunflower with a doe?
Yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak
Mathematics' an opinion
so said old Sir Isaac Newton
tell your mum it's just the onions
that are making me cry so
for the sake of conversation
let's admit that five is four
But the numbers' escalation
up to seven in a row
gives a singular sensation
tickling all the way to home
Yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak yak
If nonsense is your vocation
then there's nothing to explain
if nonsense is your life mission
sing this song loud once again!
