The Klein Four - Calculating lyrics

I can't see the circles When you map them into spheres: If they are one-connected Then pi-one disappears So h*motopy theory Is the game for me The n-holes that surround you All look the same to me So is this thing a doughnut Or is it a coffee cup? I just can't tell the difference Until you fill it up There's not much to examine Just one Greek letter pi But you really can't be serious If you have to ask me why I sit and cry 'Cause I am calculating The stable groups of spheres Don't know who I'm kidding Imagining it's clear The Adams spectral sequence A tool but a headache I don't suppose it's worth the time It's worth the time, the time that I will take Everyone keeps asking, what's it all about? I used to be so certain, now I can't figure out Complex cobordism, the alpha family The J-h*momorphism, what will its image be? Just wait and see (Chorus) But I'm thinking it over anyway I'm on the way that Adams shows To get pi-star from pi-BO But don't you say that I'll never know 'Cause that's just how dissertations go They come oh so slow, oh... (Chorus) And maybe I'll have solved it By this time next year
