Quadratic Formula Song to Adele's "Rolling In The Deep"

Teachers Emily Helf and Carey Blalock of Sequoyah High School near Canton, GA, performing Adele's "Rolling In The Deep" with modified lyrics dealing with the quadratic formula.

LYRICS
Here I come walkin', struttin down the hall
Don't even think that you're gonna make me fall
I'm on my way to take my math test
Studied my butt off and I'm gonna do my best

I see a quadratic that I must solve
First let me tell you what it's gonna involve
A X squared plus B x plus C
Make sure it's set equal to zero, then it's easy

I freeze right up, don't know what to do
I just had it here now - I don't have a clue
I start to panic - but then I see, - to solve for x

It's negative B
(quadratic formula, gonna solve for x)
Plus or minus square root
(quadratic formula, gonna solve for x)
B squared minus 4 A C
(quadratic formula, gonna solve for x)
All over, 2 A

Quadratic formula is gonna help me out
And the discriminant tells me what it's all about
B squared minus 4 A C
Tells me the answer is real or imaginary

Standard form, that's what it must be
Gotta get my numbers - from A B and C
Now plug it in to the formula -
I can't stop singin'

It's negative B
(quadratic formula, gonna solve for x)
Plus or minus square root
(quadratic formula, gonna solve for x)
B squared minus 4 A C
(quadratic formula, gonna solve for x)
All over, 2 A

It's negative B
(I've got it going on. I know my formula)
Plus or minus square root
(Plug in the numbers - 4ac)
B squared minus 4 A C
(Gonna solve for x. Using the forumula.)
All over, 2 A
(I'm gonna, make an A)

Throw down my pencil, gotta take a break
What am I doing for goodness sake
Lookin at my work it just doesn't flow
Should have studied more now I reap what I sow

Think of the formula -- quadratic formula
(quadratic formula)
Think of the formula -- quadratic formula
(quadratic formula)
Think of the formula -- quadratic formula
(the formula, the formula, the formula)
Think of the formula . . .

Negative B
Plus or minus square root
B squared minus 4 A C
All over, 2 A

Finally solved for X
Found the intercepts
And it's all because of
The Quadratic, Quadratic,
Quadratic, Quadratic Formula
