My name is 3.14160
You might have heard of my brother
His name is π
Everybody is so damn proud of him
They say he's a constant
While I'm constantly high
He gets all the glory
They think I am boring
I'm over shined
He'll help you do geometry
They're not so fond of me
He's in his prime
My parents two and three
They barely even notice me
I'm still living with them
While my brother bathes in his success
I dropped out of school
I'm a deadbeat decimal
Every Christmas, π got more presents than me
They thought he was special, I disagree
They're so impressed by how he can find the ratio of a circle’s circumference
Well, I can balance a spoon on my nose
He gets all the revelry
I'm stuck in obscurity
I'm left behind
But if I ever need some fast cash
I've got a tape of a half-naked dance
He did when he was 5 (black-mail, home boy)
My parents two and three
They barely even notice me
I'm still living with them
While my brother bathes in his success
I dropped out of school
I'm a deadbeat decimal
