lyrics

Say, girl
I said you bringin' me down
Yeah, girl
You say you don't like my songs
Oh, girl
You say you heard it all before
You know girl
Ain't nuthin' new under the sun

I don't really care about
Music that's original
All that matters is
Are you're cute enough to do me
I don't give a shit about
Being new or different
What I wanna know is
Are you cute enough to do me baby

Let me give you an alternative
(Alternative to what)
Oh baby give me an alternative, yeah

I don't wanna know about
What your mama listened to
All that matters is
Are you cute enough to do me
No one gives a damn about
What happened forty years ago
All I wanna know is
Are you cute enough to do me baby

You're too old

Got my earlobe stretching
I'm well-tattooed
Got my new horn rims
Bibbity, Bobbity, Boo
I've grown my beard out
Got my skinny jeans
Got my Macbook Pro
I think Obama's the shit
(least he was for a bit)
Listen to my iPod
In the coffee shop
Follow my Twitter
My hipness cannot be stopped
Can't beat my score
On the Facebook quiz
I'm such a bad ass
My Threadless tee's got the logo
For old school Cheez Whiz

Oh baby give me an alternative
(Alternative to what)
