How can "Hard out There For a Pimp" win best song at Oscars?

When we have had the like of 'Take My Breath Away' by Berlin, 'Up Where We Belong', Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes and 'Arthur's Theme' by Christopher Cross
how can such a shit song like 'Hard out There For a Pimp' by Three 6 Mafia, win an Oscar?

If you haven't heard the song (you are lucky) the lyrics are printed below.....


You know it's hard out here for a pimp (you ain't knowin)
When he tryin to get this money for the rent (you ain't knowin)
For the Cadillacs and gas money spent (you ain't knowin)
Because a whole lot of bitches talkin shit (you ain't knowin)
Will have a whole lot of bitches talkin shit (you ain't knowin)

Man it seems like I'm duckin dodgin bullets everyday
Niggaz hatin on me cause I got, hoes on the tray
But I gotta stay paid, gotta stay above water
Couldn't keep up with my hoes, that's when shit got harder
North Memphis where I'm from, I'm 7th Street bound
Where niggaz all the time end up lost and never found
Man these girls think we prove thangs, leave a big head
They come hopin every night, they don't end up bein dead
Wait I got a snow bunny, and a black girl too
You pay the right price and they'll both do you
That's the way the game goes, gotta keep it strictly pimpin
Gotta have my hustle tight, makin change off these women, yeah


I must be getting old.
