Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Two functions walking different ways
One from A to B displays
Another from B back to A
Each injection finds its place
Neither surjective, incomplete
But something magical we'll meet

[Chorus]
When arrows flow both directions
We can weave perfect connections
Schröder-Bernstein shows the way
Matching miracle at play
If each side fits the other's frame
Then both collections are the same

[Verse 2]
Follow chains that bounce around
Elements seeking to be found
Some will cycle, some will end
Watch the patterns twist and bend
Build our bijection piece by piece
Let the interweaving increase

[Chorus]
When arrows flow both directions
We can weave perfect connections
Schröder-Bernstein shows the way
Matching miracle at play
If each side fits the other's frame
Then both collections are the same

[Bridge]
Take the chains that start in A minus f-inverse of B
Keep original injection's destiny
For remaining elements switch
Use the backward-pointing switch
Partial matchings now complete
Perfect pairing, theorem sweet

[Chorus]
When arrows flow both directions
We can weave perfect connections
Schröder-Bernstein shows the way
Matching miracle at play
If each side fits the other's frame
Then both collections are the same

[Outro]
Two injections guarantee
Equal cardinality
The matching miracle rings true
Bijection waiting there for you
