| (Yeah, the Mathside’s comin’ at you hard… hard
like a multivariable differential equation…)
Shawty has that TI-83 that she don’t know how to use
Mista White’s her teacher so now she got the blues
What’s math class fo’?
She sho’ don’t know!
Shawty is slow slow slow slow slow slow slow slow
Take a look at that student over there
Sitting at his desk with a catatonic stare
What is math fo’?
He sho’ don’t know!
Sucka is slow slow slow slow slow slow slow slow
I ain’t never seen a kid display
such disarray, From New Orleans back to San Jose
head full of clay
A grand buffet of mind decay
Like an old cliché
I have such dismay for his brain delay
it’s not okay, there’s got to be some other way
He started that test the other day
Substandard thinking’s in his D.N.A.
Drivin’ real slow like his name is O.J.
Keepin’ it real as a WalMart toupee
Body is present but brain’s M.I.A. (I say)
All the other students were lookin’ at her
Sittin’ in my class wishin’ she could transfer
What’s math class fo’?
She sho’ don’t know!
Shawty is slow slow slow slow slow slow slow slow
Asked that boy a question in the middle of math class
Mouth hangin’ open while we’re waitin’ on his ass
What is math fo’?
He sho’ don’t know!
Sucka is slow slow slow slow slow slow slow slow
Sit back and sigh, I wonder why his well runs dry
What’s with this guy, he looks to the sky, gaze in his eye
His will to try is in short supply
A passing grade – kiss it goodbye
‘Cuz his IQ is less than pi
They told him he’s smart when they know that’s a lie
His college plans have all just gone awry
He shouldn’t even attempt to apply
Blow up his dreams like the fourth of July (I cry)
Fractions make him nervous and he’s actin’ erratic
He don’t even know how to solve a quadratic
What’s math class fo’?
He sho’ don’t know!
Sucka is slow slow slow slow slow slow slow slow
Shawty slept all quarter, then last night she tried to cram
Ain’t learned nothin,’ now she’s failin’ my exam
What is math fo’?
She sho’ don’t know!
