Dripping On Your Maths

Black dots dripping on your maths 
Black ink I think 
Hunched up pouring over graphs 
Don't blink 
Just think of all things and their link... 
Why must we go away 
When I want to stay 
I want to stay 
Joseph! 
Do not take away 
Subtract subtract subtract 
And stay 

Is this what you studied for? 
A kind of mime 
From nought to nine 
The drops keep dripping on maths 
With a serviette 
You try to get up the worst of the mess 
Why must we go away...
