The teacher never notices me turning on my brain
Or wonder why I'm always grumpy
Shane (All):
I've been in school so long
Done everything but learn it
(I've tried it for so long, but on and on I get it wrong)
I'm not so good at maths
And since the teacher noticed
That I don't understand
He'll teach me once again
Bryan (All):
The teacher talks about
(Teacher talks about)
All the things he wants to teach me
(to teach me)
But everytime I ask him why
(Time I ask him why)
He never has a reason, no no
And he don't ever notice how I try when I'm alone
Or wonder why I'm still so dumb
Shane (All):
I've been in school so long
Done everything but learn it
(I've tried it for so long, but on and on I get it wrong)
I'm not so good at maths
And since the teacher noticed
That I don't understand
He'll teach me once again
Yeah ...
Mark:
Math is my very first thought in the morning
Shane:
And my last at nightfall
Mark:
It's my challenge that I will never pass
Mark & Shane:
I'm failing, I'm needing your help
Shane (All):
I've been in school so long
So finally I'll learn it
(I've tried it for so long)
Oh yeah
I'm not so good at maths (Oooooh)
And since the teacher noticed
That I don't understand
He'll teach me once again
All:
And know it until the day I will forget
I've tried it for so long but on and on I get it wrong
I more than deserve it but since I never remember
Shane:
Since I never remember
He'll teach me once again
