Mathematics Songtext
von Van der Graaf Generator

Here be numbers transcendental
On an imaginary axis spun
Decimal places without limit
And zero and one

Mathematics
Simply pure beyond belief


E to the power of i times pi plus one is zero
E to the power of i times pi plus one is zero
E to the power of i times pi is minus one
E to the power of i times pi is minus one

A single function, exponential
Just one addition must be done
Multiplication in completion
Of zero, of one
Of zero, of one


Mathematics
Just so "wow" it brooks belief
Mathematics
Just so "wow" it brooks belief
(You′d better believe, you'd better believe it.)
