Einstein

simple math, our love divided by the square root of pride. multiply your lies plus time, i'm going out of my mind. it was heavy when i finally figured it out. alone.

i didn't get it the first time, but don't think i've been so blind. and i may not be Einstein but i know dumb + dumb = you.

even had the nerve to flirt with her in front of my face. here's ya keys, ya bags, ya clothes and now get outta my place. you say i'm crazy and that we're happy. is that supposed to comfort me?

i didn't get it the first time, but don't think i've been so blind. yea i may not be Einstein but i know dumb + dumb = you. yeahyeahyeah.

all of your promises plus a thousand apologies just take out the pain and then it leaves us with nothing at all. no, nothing at all.

you can stop wasting my time. without you i'm just fine. why did it take me so long to figure out dumb plus dumb equals you? equals you.

i didn't get it the first time, don't think i'd be so blind. and i may not be Einstein but i know dumb + dumb = you.

simple math, our love divided by the square root of pride. multiply your lies plus time, i'm going out of my mind.

and i may not be Einstein, but i know dumb + dumb = you.

I think that this song is about being blind to the things that he was doing to her and how he was hurting her and that she's now realizing what a dumb ass he is and he's not worth wasting her time on .

This mid-tempo jam finds Kelly singing about a deadbeat boyfriend. "I may not be Einstein but dumb + dumb ='s YOU!" she insists. Clarkson's song is one of several in popular music to name check the German-Swiss scientist who formulated the theory of relativity. Here are a few more:

1. "Einstein" by Gabriella Cilmi ("I'd like to think like Einstein/.know the beauty of pi").
2. "Einstein On the Beach (For An Eggman)" by ("Einstein's down on the beach standing in the sand /'Cause everything he believes in is shattered").
3. "Set The World On Fire" by Megadeth ("Einstein said 'We'll use rocks on the other side'").
4. "Desolation Row" by Bob Dylan. The fifth verse imagines a washed-up Albert Einstein living on Desolation Row.
5. "E+MC2" by Big Audio Dynamite. The song title refers to Einstein's formula that made nuclear power possible.
6. "Einstein A Go-Go" by Landscape. This Techno-Pop song was a #5 hit in the UK for British group Landscape in 1982. A keen amateur violin player himself, Einstein played Bach and Mozart. During his time in Princeton, New Jersey, Einstein used to play his violin in a string quartet. Whilst he enjoyed the sessions, his colleagues were not so enthused. One of the other players complained of him after one performance: "He can't count."
