An improper fraction is defined as a fraction in which the numerator (top number) is larger than the denominator (bottom number). Bo compares this to sex in which it is generally accepted that the larger partner should not be "on top."

This is probably the most thought-provoking lyric of this entire song. ln(x) refers to the natural long of (x), or
Log (x) / Log (2.71828). The opposite of a natural log, while not an actual mathematical term, would be the unnatural log. Bo compares this to Duraflame, a brand of electric heating units such as fire-places which utilize chemicals and electronics to create fire rather than a natural wood fire or, as he puts it, an unnatural log.

Live like your data and when you're all "set"
Put it all together and whatever you
Put it all together and whatever you
In mathematics (particularly calculus), numbers in data are usually referred to be in a "data set." The "When you're all set" line has a double meaning to it. The idiom "when you're all set" means when you are done, meaning that the mathematical set is complete, while the "Set" is a play on words referring to a data set. In mathematics, work in a data set is to only be done when the set is completed or, in Bo's words, "all set."

The mathematical variable "i" represents a number that does not exist, or is not real (imaginary). When an imaginary number is multiplied by another imaginary number, the result is "-1," a real number (i^2 = -1). Therefor, Santa Claus, a fictional character, multiplied by an imaginary number would result in a real number.
