Timothy Hicks Poet Lyric

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 brons, 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 want to 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
What girl wouldn't want to fall all over me
Give me oxygen when I forget to breathe

Some guys 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 want to 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 want to 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 aloe when
I get a burning lobster tan
On my mayonnaise skin

Now I finally got someone
That thinks my wondering eye
Is actually kinda 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

Caleah Buil May 15, 2013 at 9:49 AM Hahah this was great! What's inside is more beautiful than in! And you proved that point perfectly! I loved the part, "A lovely gal to cheer me on When I play video games" I wouldn't be cheering you on. I'd be playing along! lol! Excellent poem! Timothy Hicks May 15, 2013 at 3:13 PM Thank you! I wanted to write a reverse love song where the geeks gets the girl. I don't really where glasses and I suck at chess... haha. This was inspired from Weezer and Weird Al's music video White 'N' Nerdy...

Richard Lamoureux April 30, 2013 at 8:56 PM You the man Tim! I had a ball reading this one...oops I hope that doesn't mean you are short one. This was sheer entertainment. Way to go Tim. Richard Lamoureux May 4, 2013 at 7:28 AM I havent thought of weird al in years, I still remember his song Eat it. That is probably before your time. Timothy Hicks April 30, 2013 at 11:16 PM LOL! Nice burn Rick... didn't see that one coming. Yes, with this one I just had a blast writing. I was inspired by Weezer and the song White 'N' Nerdy by Weird Al Yankovich.

Richard D Seal April 30, 2013 at 6:13 PM Very good Tim, I like the humour lol. Suits you. Do you really think British accents impress American girls? lol. Enjoyed reading this. Take care, Richard Timothy Hicks April 30, 2013 at 11:15 PM I always thought they impressed 'em anyway, lol. What with them being blimey well formal and all that... he he he...

Delysia Hendricks April 30, 2013 at 1:44 AM hahaha. I know you're a far cry from the geek you describe here. Nice one, Timothy. :) Timothy Hicks April 30, 2013 at 8:21 AM It's true I don't wear glasses, nor do I speak elvish or clenon. Though I am abnormally pale (must be the Irish in me... hehe). I wanted to write a sorta backwards love song... where the geek gets the girl. Glad you got a kick out of it!
