lyrics

This guy asked me out on a date.
I said, “sure why not”, and he picked me up at eight.
He’s been diggin’ me for awhile.
But I’m not sure that he’s my type.

Cheap date.
That night he took me out to dinner.
He ordered salad and a breadstick.
He had the balls to say, “let’s share”.

Cheap date.
He also took me to movies.
I had to listen to his dumb jokes.
He didn’t pay, he wouldn’t pay.

In the twenty-first century,
Our gender roles are just a bit blurry.
I don’t need someone to pay my way.
But he’s the one who asked me out.

Trippin’ through this weird phase of romance.
He thought he’d get away with doin’ it half ass.
Yes, it’s true chivalry’s dead and gone.
Well, maybe I should just date girls.

Cheap date.
He said he’d take me on a journey.
So we got hoagies at the WaWa.
I could do better for myself.

Whiskey.
From the flask inside my purse.
Before you know it I am tipsy.
And then I think he’s not so bad.
