Beer Math

[Verse 1]
I walked in here with a twenty dollar bill Intentions were good, standing static and still But the sign on the wall said "Happy Hour Deal" And my brain started spinning that logical wheel If I buy one beer, it's six bucks a pop But a bucket is twenty, so why should I stop? I'm basically making a profit, you see This economics degree is working for me

[Chorus]
It's Beer Math, baby, it don't make sense To anyone sitting on the sober fence If I drink it fast, the calories don't stick If someone buys a round, well, that's just a trick 'Cause free beer is zero, and buckets are deals I'm saving a fortune, that's how it feels Subtract the sorrow, carry the laugh Yeah, I'm a genius at Beer Math

[Verse 2]
My buddy said "Dude, you spent half your check" I said "Listen here, get off of my neck" If I stay here 'til closing, I save on the cab 'Cause Dave's gonna drive if I pick up his tab So really I'm investing in safety tonight Put that in your spreadsheet and shine up a light

[Chorus]
It's Beer Math, baby, it don't make sense To anyone sitting on the sober fence If I drink it fast, the calories don't stick If someone buys a round, well, that's just a trick 'Cause free beer is zero, and buckets are deals I'm saving a fortune, that's how it feels Subtract the sorrow, carry the laugh Yeah, I'm a genius at Beer Math

[Bridge]
One plus one equals three AM Let's solve the problem and do it again Calculators broken, the numbers are blurry But I ain't in no kind of worry

[Outro]
Hey bartender, run the numbers again. I think you owe me money. Beer Math.
