Four-Eyed Charmer

I wear a white buttoned shirt And my friends call me four eyes But I don't care, just slowly walk away And give 'em my gang sign Don't bother with my appearance Cause I'm the king of the chess team Most guys got brawns, when it comes to logic I can win before you take a seat And I'm a four-eyed charmer But a real straight A lover What girl wouldn't wanna fall all over me Hold my bag on the boat when I'm sick at sea I'll give this life a mighty heave Confidence you wouldn't believe Whet girl wouldn't wanna fall all over me Give me oxygen when I forget to breathe Some gits got British accents To impress any American gal I speak elvish and clenon They got their mansion royale Some guys eat snails a la mode And only settle for the finest wine I can foresee myself in Paris Throwing tomatoes at the mimes A true heart you'll discover Under this four-eyed charmer What girl wouldn't wanna fall all over me Hold my bag on the boat when I'm sick at sea And I'm taking a leap of faith That could either destroy or save What girl wouldn't wanna fall all over me Give me oxygen when I forget to breathe Now I finally got someone A lovely gal to cheer me on When I play videogames All night to the crack of dawn Now I finally got someone Who loves to rub when I get a burning lobster tan On my mayonnaise skin Now I finally got someone Who thinks my wandering eye Is actually kinds cute At least now I'm not so shy I am the geek with four eyes A noble prince in disguise With a girl who courageously fell for me As the titanic sinks I'll be your Lenny And I bet it all on a whim Now I'm the one with everything With a girl who courageously fell for me Her smile augmented when I stood on one knee NOTE: So I feel ridiculously silly now, but I already posted this one a long time ago... must have slipped my mind... oh well :/

Not really. I was just thinking of all the movies where the typical guy gets the typical girl... where's the movie where the nerd prevails and gets the girl of his dreams??

Thanks Charmaine. I was inspired by Weird Al's video White 'n' Nerdy.

Where the nerd gets the girl and the jock hits the floor... I am humbled to be visited by an amazing poet such as yourself :)
