Benjamin Clementine - Mathematics lyrics

Silly boy, don't you know that young girl was going to leave She would have not even stayed even if you two might have meant to be Don't you bother calling that lady Or she will tell you what she really needed Sighting ain't all about the chemistry But mathematics, mathematics Simply add 1 to 1 and it will be 2 And so subtract one from two and you are left with you Now if a ship gets stuck at the north pole That doesn't mean it's about to join her sister the Titanic So swallow your pride, won't you feel some guilt? If you want to cry go ahead, don't you panic For all we know, tomorrow surely is another day Come on now, won't you give yourself a break and start all over again Think mathematics Think mathematics Just add 1 to 1 and it will be 2 Then subtract 1 from 2 and you will be left with you now Left with you now Only you now With a little bit of feelings Subtract you now From the two now Only left with you now And a little bit of feelings You are a number Just a number Added to her past lovers
