this is the story of the kids called the crabs
they used to loiter on the corner up on jefferson ave
they're always chanting on their mantra, you only get 
what you grab
and there's money in the city, but the money's in 
handbags
but that's not new, yeah that's review
i already told you about the bags that get grabbed by 
the crab dudes
they got supply if you got demand
they'd get a grand to the gram if they could decimate 
these other gangs

and math is money and money is math, a leather vest, 
assless chaps
peter panned out here from springfield, mass
(math is money and money is math)

newspaper said that some crabs stabbed some rich kid
but what's a rich kid doin that far up on jefferson
tried to do a little more but he dropped it in the 
toilet
short by an ounce that's when they pounced dude
didn't even mention the amount the crabs came crashin 
though
this ain't smart dude, this ain't art dude
this is sonic economics and i'll put it on a graph for 
you to prove

that math is money and money is math, a leather vest 
and assless chaps
peter panned back into springfield, mass
(math is money and money is math)

twin cities, they're gangin up on me
twin cities, they're double teamin me

well hello, new bedford, mass won't you hit me with a 
little bit of amnesty

(twin cities) twin cities, they're gangin up on me
(twin cities) twin cities, they're double teamin me
