lyrics

I don't have to stay with the asshole that I
have always fallen for since I
can remember, but it's not only me;
it's women from the beginning of time,
but it's not the beginning of time,
it's kind of later in the game,
and the environment's not the same,
so it affects sexual selection.

That asshole that seemed right back then
has sent the environment reeling
New times call for new choices
making that nice guy more appealing.
There will always be assholes, it's true
but I won't be rewarding, what good would that do?
Who cares if he drives a lexus or a mitsubishi
I'm choosing one for the species.
Ain't I lucky, that that one, is you.
