BTW, I've searched some but I don't have a clue as to what to search. GUEST....Do you have any fragments of actual lyrics or anything......something??? Outside of that, we can only hope that this rings a bell with someone........Of course that could take an "infinity." .....oops....... Spaw |

18 Feb 01 - 05:50 AM (#400694) Subject: RE: math based love songs From: Crazy Eddie There is a Robert Service poem about a square who fell in love with a triangle. However the triangle preferred a cube. The ending is something like: "now she dotes on her kids, such cute pyramids, in a world of three dimensions" I THINK it is called Maternity. I have heard it sung, but the tune was not very memorable. |
