Verse 1
EPathological monsters! cried the Aterrified mathemaF♯mtician
Every Aone of them is a B7splinter in my Eeye
I hate the EPeano Space and the Koch Curve
I fear the ACantor Ternary F♯mSet
The SierApinski Gasket B7makes me want to cryE
And a Amaj7million miles Emaj7away a Amaj7butterfly Emaj7flapped its wings
     Amaj7         Emaj7   F♯m              B7             E(riff) 2x
On a cold November day.. a man named Benoit Mandelbrot was born

Verse 2
EHis disdain for pure mathematics and his uAnique geometrical F♯minsights
Left him Awell equipped to B7face those demons dowEn
He saw that Einfinite complexity could be Adescribed by simple ruF♯mles
He used his Agiant brain to tBurn the game arounEd
And he Amaj7looked below the storm and Emaj7saw a vision in his head
A Amaj7bulbous pointy fEmaj7orm
He picked his F♯mpencil up and he Bwrote his secret EdownB7   E     B7

Pre Chorus
Take a Epoint called B7C in the Ecomplex B7plane
Let EZ1 be Z B7squared plus EC  B7
And ZE2 is Z1 B7squared plus EC B7
And ZE3 is Z2 B7squared plus EC and so on
If the Aseries of Z's should B7always stay
A♭Close to C and never C♯mtrend aBway
That Apoint is in the B7Mandelbrot ESet

Chorus
Mandelbrot B7Set you're a Rorschach Test on fire
You're a Eday-glo pterodactyl
You're a B7heart-shaped box of springs and wire
You're one Ebadass fucking E7fractal
And you're F♯11just in time to Amaj7save the day
F♯11Sweeping all our Amaj7fears away
        F♯11                  Amaj7   E(riff)4x
You can change the world in a tiny way

Verse 3
EMandelbrot's in heaven, at least he Awill be when he's F♯mdead
Right now he's Astill alive and B7teaching math at EYale
He gave us Eorder out of chaos, he gave us Ahope where there was F♯mnone
And his Ageometry sucB7ceeds where others Efail
If you Amaj7ever lose your Emaj7way, a Amaj7butterfly will Emaj7flap its wings
From a Amaj7million miles aEmaj7way, a little F♯mmiracle will B7come to take you EhomeB7   E     B7

Pre Chorus
Take a Epoint called B7C in the Ecomplex B7plane
Let EZ1 be Z B7squared plus EC  B7
And ZE2 is Z1 B7squared plus EC B7
And ZE3 is Z2 B7squared plus EC and so on
If the Aseries of Z's should B7always stay
A♭Close to C and never C♯mtrend aBway
That Apoint is in the B7Mandelbrot ESet

Final Chorus
