Arithmetic's hero
|
The fat little zero
|
He's nothing at all, you say? |
Then come with me
|
I want you to see
|
Our hero at work and at play! |
With One, when he flirts
|
At the left of her skirts
|
He's done nothing at all, has he. |
When he stands at her right
|
He's given her might --
|
Ten times as great is she. |
Add him to One
|
And nothing is done
|
Each word that I say is true. |
The same you can say
|
When you take him away
|
It's the easiest thing you can do. |
But the damage was done
|
When he multiplied One
|
She completely vanished they say. |
The same he would do
|
To a three or a two
|
He treats them all the same way. |
Take warning and never
|
Try to be clever --
|
Division by zero don't trust. |
I'm warning you now
|
It matters not how
|
Your answer will blow up and bust! |
