(tune- `The longest Time’ by Billy Joel)
Woh, oh-oh-oh
Find the Longest Path
Woh oh-oh
Find the Longest Path
If you said P is NP tonight
There would still be papers left to write
I have a weakness
I’m addicted to completeness
And I keep searching for the longest Path
The algorithm I would like to see
Is of Polynoimal Degree
Buts its elusive,
Nobody has found conclusive
Evidence that we can find the Longest Path
I have been hard
Working for so long
I swear its right,
But he marks it wrong
Somehow I’ll feel sorry when its done
GPA 2.1,
Is more than I hoped for
Garey, Johnson, Karp and other Men (and Women)
Try to make it Order n log n.
Am I a math fool
If I spend my life in Grad School
Forever following the Longest Path.
Woh oh-oh-oh
Find the longest path
Woh oh-oh-oh
Find the longest path
