The Math Rap (C) 1991 Charlie Lundell Performed here in April 2007, Charlie has been a math teacher at Pine Ridge High School in Deltona, FL since it opened in 1995. By request, the lyrics: You see, some do rap and some do math But for those who want the knowledge, they follow my path. For a wise man said that knowledge is power Without mathematics, your mind will go sour. See, it's understanding numbers and their application That gives you the mind for appreciation And there's only one thing that's important to find That's by any means possible to expand your mind. So bein' down with mathematics, that ain't nuthin' to hide See with the knowledge, you get the pride. Now workin' with fractions, that'll never never stop If you want the decimal, divide bottom into top. Times it by a hundred, percent you're gonna' get If you understand that you will never never fret. 'cause if you're ever gonna' by a house, percent you're gonna' need It's interest that you're payin', so you better take heed. Now welcome to algebra, the land of unknown If you understand this, I know your mind has truly grown. Have you solved an equation? Well I don't want you to wonder Do you have a letter? Simply equal to a number If you have, then that's great and I know that you're no fool, You must have followed algebra's Golden Rule It's very important, so memorize it brutha' Whatever you do to one side, you must do it to the utha'. Word.
