At first I thought I'd like that class a lot,
concerning math that I already knew.
An algebraic wizard I am not.
I solved for X and Y but soon forgot
to square my eight with six and forty two.
At first I thought I'd like that class a lot.
Our demon teacher tested on the spot
with long equations I could never do.
An algebraic wizard I am not.
I did my work and whined. My grades were shot
because of knowledge I could not accrue.
At first I thought I'd like that class a lot.
I try my best at times, but cannot blot
that subject. It has knocked my mind askew!
An algebraic wizard I am not.
Have pity, please, and do not ask me what
I learned in school. I haven't got a clue.
At first I thought I'd like that class a lot.
An algebraic wizard I am not.
