Oh and I believe it's "I CAN'T do the long division / Someone do the math." I visited another site (www.sing365.com) that posted the lyrics, which corroborated my suspicion that I'm right about that.
The line is funny and it's one of my favorite lines from this song and I think that whoever posted the lyrics got it wrong. The point of the line is Jason is here to write and perform songs, and to have fun doing it. He does not want to be bothered by the business and accounting side of his profession. "Someone do the math" to me means someone else manage my business and do the accounting, because I'd rather not worry about stuff like how many spins on how many stations my songs get.
