Stupid With Love - Original Broadway Cast of Mean Girls, Erika Henningsen

When I was five, I fell in love

It didn’t last

He ran from me

Literally ran from me

And being Kenyan he ran fast

When I was ten, in love again

This peace corps guy

I waited for hours

Inside his tent with flowers

Which made him laugh

Which made me cry

By thirteen I gave up trying

I decided I would be a mathematician

'Cause math is real

I memorized a lot of pi

Because additions and subtractions and division

Would never make me feel

So stupid with love

Like I didn’t get it

I didn’t get it, somehow

Smart with math but stupid with love

I didn’t get it

I didn’t get it…

'Till now

Do you have an eraser?

I would love to

So thank you, math, for being there

To bring me joy

And thank you, math

'Cause now brought me this cute boy!

Is it two?

YES!

He’s like someone from TV

He’s like that guy who gives out roses to those women

His clothes, his grooming

And he’s foot away from me

With swoopy hair and shiny eyes that I could swim in

He is live and in the room!

And I’m stupid with love

I wanna get it

I wanna get it, but how?

Smart with math, but stupid with love

I wanna get it

I didn’t get it 'till now

Two over zero is undefined

Jinx

Ha!

I’m astounded and non-plussed

I am filled with calculust

Does this guy work out?

He must

All sweaty at the gym

Could that image be more hot?

Let me just enjoy that thought…

School was rough but now it’s not

'Cause now there’s him

It’s all so simple

Stupid with love

But I can get it

Watch this girl self-educate

I learned math, so I can learn love

You wanna bet it?

That I can get it?

Just wait

Just wait

Just wait!
