Addition Short

ADDITION SHORT

I was short on addition
And I couldn’t subtract the different
My heart and mind was divided
2-+2 was 4 no more
And I couldn’t subtract the different
Multiply the fractions rounded up to 8
2+2 was 4 no more
Had to take the eraser, wipe off all numbers and recalibrate
Multiply the fractions rounded up to 8
2+2 was 4 no more
My heart and mind was divided
Had to take the eraser, wipe off all numbers and recalibrate
I was short on addition
