"Economics is Hot" is a rendition to "Drop it like it's Hot." The instrumental is from the original song, however I have added my own lyrics. Please forgive me for my terrible "rapping" ability. The lyrics are listed below:

[Intro]
Victoorrrrrrrrrrrrr..
Claaaarrrrrrrrrrrr..

[Chorus]
When scarcity arises
Economics is hot
Economics is hot
Economics is hot
When opportunity costs start to get at ya
Economics is hot
Economics is hot
Economics is hot
And if your PPF shifts left
Economics is hot
Economics is hot
Economics is hot
The supply curve slopes up while the demand curve slopes down
And we all take econ 212 cause it's the best class around

[Verse 1]
Elasticity is what I'll start with,
Unit elasticity equals 1, that is not a myth
A good greater than one, is elastic
Some examples are cars and clothes, this will be quick
Inelasticity are goods greater than one
Gas and milk are examples, can you think of some?
Perfectly elastic and inelastic are the last two
Please forgive me if I start to confuse you
Economics is not a sheep, it'll show up in your sleep
Theories will run through your head, making you want to shriek
So don't try to stay up all night studying that shhhh
Trying to cram for that shhhh
When V.V.C. told you not to do that shhhh
So think about it, take a second
Matter fact, you should start to study
Because microeconomics isn't easy

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Game theory's next, and it's not a joke,
If you play it wrong it could leave you broke,
Remember use a dominant strategy,
Nash won a Nobel prize for it, saves you money
Repeated games have 2 strategies,
Trigger is the result of trickery, while tit-for-tat is retaliatory
[scratches] "two!" - "one!" - "yep, three!"
Professor C-L double A R is off the heezy
I can't fake it, just break it, and when I take it
See I specialize in making economics very basic
So bring your friends, all of you come inside
We do payoff matrices for fun......no that's a lie,
But don't change the dizzle, turn it up a little
I got a notebook full of economic scribblez
Waiting on the H.H.I.zzle, the A.V.C.zzle and the M.C.zzle
Inferior goods are terrible, normal goods are the shizzle

[Chorus]

[Verse 3
Now is price ceilings, and price floors (flows)
Both are inefficient, did you know?
Deadweight loss, is like a bad cough
Overproduction/underproduction is the result
On the TV screen and in the magazines
Economic talk has increased today because of gasoline
Microeconomics is almost over and you still haven't learned jack?
Turn up the volume now, on this track,
Marginal cost equals marginal revenue
You must remember this, like how to tie your shoe
Repetition is a great clue and yes I'm talking to you
Once again marginal cost equals marginal revenue
Don't forget to study or it will get you
And listen to V.V.C. cause everything he says is true
That's the end, I am through
I would like to thank the creators of this beat, the original two

[Outro]
Victoorrrrrrrrrrrrr..
Claaaarrrrrrrrrrrr..

  • I hate economics (mostly because of my shitty teacher) ... I'd rather take quantum physics...

  • drop it like its hot

  • I majored in econ, along with a double major in history. In comparison, econ was far more demanding but is one of the best majors at learning how to discern and develop what my labor econ prof called "a finely tuned BS detector."

    It is also true that if you are dedicated enough you will see graphs and charts haunting your dreams, especially just before and just after finals week.

    BTW, inferior goods are not "terrible" they can be just fine, you just buy less as your income rises ;)
