I don’t fucking Understand!
On the first day of school
I walked into a physics room
Being here, I was such a fool
Not aware that I will face doom
Prothro launched projectiles
Look at them go!
Smiles and he got us hooked
Objects at rest
Forces to make them move
Hey listen! This will be on the test.
But no time to improve…
Oh look, the first question
Oh joy, my depression
What the fuck is an acceleration?
I was sure that I was damned
I don’t fucking understand
Prothro talked about rope
Wrapped around a pulley
Sitting on top of an incline slope
"What is the tension?"
I don’t know… Truly,
Do you think I was paying attention?
Nope, I have a short mind retention!
I have zero concentration! (In physics)
For your information
"Well", he says, "Can you explain this, the best you possibly can?"
No. Because I don’t fucking understand!
"I digress!" Prothro shouts
I’m oppressed I flout
Here’s what I’m gonna say
Help me God I pray
Prothro teaches us friction
Good thing I understood the textbook’s diction
We watched as he draws the depiction
Thankfully Prothro isn’t making any contradictions
Otherwise this will be another affliction, constriction, infliction
This is my fucking crucifixion
Now you better listen
He then talks about momentum
Here’s what I’m gonna tell him
I still don’t fucking understand.
"The ball is elastic (wave hands)"
The way he said it sounds bombastic
"When 2 objects collide, they bounce away from each other"
Fantastic, but what the hell is inelastic?
"Elastic’s exact opposite brother"
The way you said that sounds very sarcastic
That Prothro, how very classic
"Has your knowledge expand?"
I don’t fucking understand.
Prothro preached about energy and work
Well it’s time to improve my guesswork
Kinetic and Potential
In my life, is this really essential?
"Yes! What happens when you’re on top of a 20-story apartment?"
You jump?
Oh God, don’t get me started.
Right, I will just get a little bump. (Tap head)
"No! You’re higher up, so…"
(snap fingers) Gravity pulls me (By the way, it’s constantly pulling us)
"How can you not quickly pickup…"
Oh I see,
It converts into kinetic energy
"Yes that’s how it works generally.
Do you understand the major concepts essentially?"
I don’t fucking understand.
Prothro showed us circles and rotation
What the hell are those notations?
Prothro handed me a red stick
Told me to quickly rotate it
My arm was feeling a strange sensation
The girl next to me had not struggled one bit
Then I learned … Prothro you fucking dick!
"Do you understand? (Smirks)"
Yes, I finally do!
"Great, this event is so grand!"
I learned that sticks can not be judged in only one view.
"Oh My God!!! You don’t fucking understand."
Prothro taught us voltage, current, and resistance
Does this have any relation to distance?
He sets up light bulbs in series
I have no worries
He sets up the light bulbs in parallel
So far learning has been swell
"You understand this, I can tell"
This time my grade hasn’t fell
Prothro taught us waves
On springs and strings
Even from sounds when somebody sings
He taught us pathway interference
My understanding again reached incoherence
There will never be any clearance
If a speaker is on,
I will hear it anywhere nearby
Prothro, you’re a fucking con
But I wonder why in physics, (pause 5 seconds)
I don’t fucking understand
