lyrics

The first time I saw you I knew I had to have you
Will you fit my new hypothesis?
Snag some pencils a notebook and a calculator
We’re conducting a new experiment
Step one gotta get myself a first name basis
Maybe numbers to go along with it
Charts and figures I think I’ve nailed all the specifics
Now just make sure we don’t break equipment

Gotta fill in the variables
Keep the constants the way they've always been
Going back to my old equation
Though it's failing me time and time again
Gone through so many iterations
Am I off by a foot or just an inch?
What will end up as my solution?
All these misses I've almost finished it

So far everything's had a proper explanation
My theory's predicted all of this
But we know that entropy always increases
Could this be a meta-stable trick?
Forgot to ensure nothings contaminated
If there's a fire can we extinguish it?
Time's up and results show we could not have made it
I hope that I learned something from this

The game we're playing
Oh I am so sick of it
I wish there was a shortcut
But I know there just isn't
Everybody trudges through it
Guess I'll find more data to record
Man I wish I hadn't blew it
Better get back to the drawing board
