Numbers
I’ve never been friends
with numbers
They’ve never been friends
with me.
I’m afraid that subtraction
Almost drives me to distraction,
I’d much rather watch T.V.
I can’t multiply 9 by 8
Most days I can’t remember
the date,
If I go in a shop and
have to pay,
How much change should
I take away?
What’s 98 divided by 11?
Did that phone number end
In a 6 or a 7?
How many 4’s in 73?
Don’t know.
But I do wish that
Numbers were friends
with me.
