It doesn’t matter what the teachers said
They don’t know as much as we might think
We can learn to deal with x,y,z.
These letters , used as numbers, are not dead
But in the mind’s eye, glow like golden ink
It doesn’t matter what the teacher said
I learned that once when I was ill in bed
I saw a screen with letters which were linked
We can learn to deal with x,y,z.
The letters moved to stand in two lines wed
Then ratios formed and thus caused me to think
It doesn’t matter what the teacher said
I saw the answer glitter as I read
Pascal solved it once, and then I did
We can learn to deal with x,y,z.
Observe the patterns , hidden and unread;
Like music which has scores and does their bid
It doesn’t matter what the teacher said
We can learn to deal with x,y,z.
