SO HOW MANY TIMES I TRIED MY DEAR

TO SIMPLIFY THE WAY I FEEL

WONDER WHY, IF WHAT WORDS COULD MEAN 

THE WHOLE OF WHAT I WANNA TELL



I TRIED PHYSICS AND CALCULUS

TO EVALUATE THIS CRAZY THOUGHT

I TRIED TRIGO AND CHEMISTRY

BUT THE UNKNOWN INCREASE BY THREE



I GRAPHED IT ON A DRAWING BOARD

TO FIND AND LOOK FOR ITS MAGNITUDE

BUT AS I PLOT ITS BOUNDERY

I'VE FOUND I EXTENDED TO INFINITY



I HAVE COMPLICATED THE EASIER ONE

'CAUSE IBM MACHINE WAS NOT ON HAND

SO I GAVE UP AND THOUGHT IT WISE

TO USE SLIDE RULE AS MY DEVICE



I TRIED TO ADD IT ALL AGAIN

BUT WHAT I GOT WAS JUST THE SAME

SO I SUBTRACTED IT FROM THE SUM

BUT THE DIFFERENCE WAS NEGATIVE SIGN



I MULTIPLIED IT ALL AGAIN 

TO SEE IF I COULD WIN THE GAME

BUT WHAT I GOT WAS VERY BAD 

THE SAME RESULT WHEN I DIVIDE



SO WHAT I USE WAS ALGEBRA

TO SOLVE IT ALL WITH FORMULA

AND WITH THE AID OF GEOMETRY

I GOT THE ANSWER 1-4-3
