lyrics

I smarter than everybody says,
not dumb, like you were lead to believe.
My brothers have been picking on me since day one
and it’s time that I get my justice due

Smart as a whip, as they say
but whip’s aint smaht, not to may
a sword is smarter. it’ll cut ya
What could be smarter than a cutting mechanism?

book smahts don’t pay the rent
Book smahts don’t pitch my tent

I read on truth.com
just the other day
that if we keep stealing energy away from the sun
it’ll shrivel up like deflated baboon

Who would read that stuff, anyway
But a cultured man
Engaging in scientific debate
With an mental state that’s pretty great

book smahts don’t pay the rent
Book smahts don’t pitch my tent

When the river’s not flowing your way
switch to the other side
it’s flowing in the opposite direction
and you’ll get a lot quicker to your destination

hey fred, it’s mike, sonny’s on his way
not only are you dumb but you’re kinda lame
and I’m just letting you know how it is
you don’t even know your there their theres

Come at me bro
with your there their they’res
Even bring your where were wears
I’m tired of being malcolm in the middle
I’m tired of having to remain civil

book smahts don’t pay the rent
Book smahts don’t pitch my tent
