Beach House on the Moon is the twenty-third studio album by American singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett and was released on May 24, 1999.

The song "Math Suks" caused a minor and brief media frenzy over Jimmy Buffett's seeming disdain for math education.

The lyrics tell of the author's frustration as a math student.

The song's lyrics refer to hearing the phrase "Math sucks" on an interview on TV, though Buffett later noted that the inspiration actually came from graffiti on a bridge in Key West Florida.

[2][3] The song was condemned by the US National Council of Teachers of Mathematics and the National Education Association for its alleged negative effect on children's education.
