The Nerd Song
(Written by Jason Allen)

We went on a date - it went real well
Went to her house and my feet smelt
So I left real free and early

Yeah, I don't have a lot of luck with the ladies that's true
Can't find a way to get through
Everything I say comes out like I'm some kind of nerd
Yeah I'm a hopeless nerd
And it hurts that I know you've heard
That I'm a hopeless nerd

And I can tell you all about the RAM in your computer
I can make a program do exactly what you want it to
But I'm just failing fast when it comes to you
When it comes to you
Don't know what to do

Everytime we're through and I still know
There's nothing left to show
That I can be somebody, run to you...

Yeah I'm no good with women that's true
I'd rather be at home with a computer...
'Cos it wants to do what I want to do

I'm a selfish nerd
I'm no good with words - so you've heard
So you've heard, so you've heard
That's why you're leaving, you're leaving - good!

I'm no good with people that's true
I'd rather be at home with a PC computer
I see what I can see
On the screen it's there in front of me

I got no complications, no obligations
Nothing to stop me ever going where I wanna go
So where do you wanna go today?
'Cos I bet I don't wanna go too

It's a lot like me and you
I still laugh at how we joked about
Taking on the World
When we don't know where it is
Where it is

Yeah I'm a useless nerd
I'm no good with words
I see you've heard
I got words
I said words not worms...

"Another 'live' one take improvisation that was first captured on a trusty tape recorder. I had to edit the lyrics later on because the original version had about a dozen 'F' words and a few other choice profanities."
