[Verse 1]
While mom cries out in the night
As she grows restless, trying to explain what is a variable
Neither of them can get it right
Switching numbers into letters, it is super duper terri-a-ble
'Cause we are at the point with her
That what she's learning we can't figure out 'cause we've forgotten it all
I don't know what's an integer
Now we're throwing pencils at the wall

[Chorus]
Gonna take a lot to know what to say to you
'Cause I can't remember anything or what to do
It's such a pain, learning algebra
Gonna take some wine to do 'cause mommy's getting mad
Oh no

[Verse 2]
I hear the crumbs falling off the plate
Mommy, she is stress-eating an entire bag full of Pirate Booty
She's getting flashbacks of 8th grade
When she had a perm and braces and was failing her Geometry
We're gonna be up super late
Why do we have to learn this sh*t again? Yeah

[Chorus]
Gonna take a lot to try to explain to you
If it goes to the other side, you've got to divide by 2
It's such a pain, learning algebra (Ah, such a pain)
It's such a pain, learning algebra (Yeah, I'm getting a migraine)
It's such a pain, learning algebra (Ah, don't wanna solve for X)
It's such a pain, learning algebra (She won't use this in real life)
It's such a pain, learning algebra (Wine, gonna take some wine)
Gonna take some wine to do 'cause mommy's getting mad
Oh no
