Stupid With Love

When I was nine, I fell in love

This Peace Corps guy

I waited hours inside his tent with flowers

Which made him laugh, which made me cry

By 13, I gave up trying

I decided I would be a mathematician

'Cause math is real

I memorized a lot of pi

Because addition and subtraction and division

Would never make me feel so stupid with love

I didn't get it

I didn't get it, somehow

Smart with math but stupid with love

I didn't get it

I didn't get it 'til now

Hmm-mm

So thank you, math, for being there

To bring me joy

And thank you, math

'Cause now you've brought me this cute boy

He's like someone from TV

He's like that guy who gives out roses to those women

His clothes, his grooming

And he's a foot away from me with swoopy hair

And shiny eyes that I could swim in

He is live and in the room

And I'm stupid with love

I wanna get it

I wanna get it, but how?

Smart with math but stupid with love

I wanna get it

I didn't get it 'til now

Hmm-mm

I'm astounded and nonplussed

I am filled with calculust

Does this guy work out? He must

All sweaty at the gym

Could that image be more hot?

Let me just enjoy that thought

School was rough but now it's not

'Cause now there's him!

Stupid with love

I didn't get it

I didn't get it somehow

Smart with math but stupid with love

I didn't get it

I didn't get it 'til now
