WE WILL GRAPH YOU!
WORDS BY: JOHN A. CARTER
TUNE: "WE WILL ROCK YOU!"

Buddy, you're a man with a hard time graphing.
All you need to do is find the m and the b.
It's not too hard you see,
You put your pencil on the b.
Graphing's not as hard as you thought it might be, singing

Chorus: We will, we will graph you!
We will, we will graph you!

Now you've got a point on the y-intercept.
All you need to do is find the rest of it.
You need the slope to go on,
That's rise over run.
Delta y in delta x, boy it's fun, singing...

(Chorus)

Next, take the coefficient of the x baby.
Find two more points and another one maybe.
Go up or down first,
Then go across.
I dig graphing lines, I think it's boss, singing...

(Chorus)
