Story behind the song

If Hillbillies had their own Sesame Street, this one would be from the math module.

Lyrics

Algebraic notation was never my specialty 
Our love was such a sensation 
That it squared and rooted me 
But a standard deviation resulted in goodbye 
And I cant let my ex equal my why 

Our means were above average but our ends diversified 
We plotted points; we drew our lines
It was no piece of pi 
A multitude of factors but no constant could apply 
So I cant let my ex equal my why 

(Bridge) 
Thank God we didnt get to multiplying 
Before we calculated to divide 
It was a given that with her Id surely cry 
And I cant let my ex equal my why 

If a train leaves town at midnight and its headed south real fast 
And another train is speeding north
On the same ol set of tracks 
And when they meet, who will prevail and would anything survive? 
I cant let my ex equal my why 

(Bridge) 
Thank God we didnt get to multiplying 
Before we calculated to divide 
It was a given that with her Id surely cry 
And I cant let my ex equal my why
