G                             C
If necessity is the mother of invention
G                                              C
Then I'd like to kill the guy who invented this
F                                 C
The numbers come together in some kind of third dimension
G
A regular algebraic bliss


Let's start with something simple like one and one ain't tree
And two plus two will never get you five
There are fractions in my subtraction and x don't equal y
G                  F             C
But my homework is bound to multiply (ply, ply, ply)


Chorus:
 	      F      C    
 	 Math sucks, math sucks
 	 G                                C
 	 I'd like to burn this text book, I hate this stuff so much
 	      F      C    
 	 Math sucks, math sucks
 	     Am                 G                 F
 	 Sometimes I think that I don't know that much
 	 But math sucks

I got so bored with my homework, I turned on the TV
The beauty contest winners were all smiling through their teeth
Then they asked the new Miss America
Hey babe can you add up all those bucks?
She looked puzzled, then just said "Math Sucks"

Chorus:
 	 Math sucks, math sucks
 	 You don't even have to spell it, all you have to do is yell it
 	 Math sucks, math sucks
 	 Sometimes I think that I don't know that much
 	 But math suck


Bridge:
 	 Am                                 G
 	 Geometry, Trigonometry and if that don't tax your brain
 	 Am                              G
 	 There are numbers too big to be named.
 	 Am                       G
 	 Numerical precision is a science with a mission
 	 Am                              B7
 	 And I think it's gonna drive me insane.

(Solo: chords--> C  G   C   G  F  G

Parents fighting with their children and the congress can't agree
Teacher and thier students are all jousting constantly
Management and labors keep rattling old sabres
Quacking like those Peabody ducks

(Repeat 2nd Chorus)

C
Math sucks, Math sucks, Math sucks the big one...(Repeat & fade out)
