  • Well, let the geek in the pink take a stab at it
    If you like the way I'm thinkin', baby, wink at it
    I may be skinny at times, but I'm fat full 'a rhymes
    Pass me the mic, and I'm a grab at it a
    Isn't it delicious crazy way that I'm kissin'?
    'Cause, baby, listen to this; don't want to miss it while it's hittin'
    Sometimes you gotta fit in to get in
    But don't ever quit 'cause soon I'm gonna let you in, but see

    I don't care what you might think about me
    You can vibe without me if you want
    I could be the one to take you home
    Baby, I could rock the night alone
    If we never get down, it wouldn't be a let down
    But, sugar, don't forget what you already know
    I could be the one to turn you out
    We could be the talk across the town
    Don't judge me by the color, confuse it for another
    You might regret what you let slip away

    I'm the geek in the pink, pink, pink
    I'm the geek in the pink, yeah

    Well, this relationship fodder don't mean to bother nobody
    But Cupid's automatic musta fired multiple shots at her
    Because she fall in love too often; that's what the matter
    At least I talk about it, keep a pattern of flattery, and a
    She was staring through the door frame
    Eying me down like already a bad boyfriend
    Well, she can get her toys outta the drawer then
    'Cause I ain't comin' home; I don't need that attention, see

    I don't care what you might think about me
    You'll get by without me if you want
    I could be the one to take you home
    Baby, we could rock the night alone
    If we never get down, it shouldn't be the let down
    But, sugar, don't forget what you already know
    I could be the one to turn you out
    You could be the talk across the town
    Don't judge it by the color, confuse it for another
    You might regret what you let slip away

    I am more than you're thinking
    Hey, look at me go
    From hero to zero
    Oh, take it from a geek like me
    I can save you from unoriginal dumb dumbs
    Who wouldn't care if you complete him or not

    So what, I've got a short attention span
    A coke in my hand
    Because I'd rather have the afternoon, relax and understand
    Mmm, hip hop and flip flops; it don't stop with the light rock
    A shot to mock you kinda puts me in the tight spot
    The hype is nothing more than, so I'm
    Developing a language, and I'm calling it my own
    So take a peek into the speaker and you'll see what I mean
    That on the other side the grass is greener

    I don't care what you might think about me
    You'll get by without me if you want
    I could be the one to take you home
    Baby, we could rock the night alone
    If we never get down, it wouldn't be the let down
    But, sugar, don't forget what you already know
    I could be the one to turn you out
    We could be the talk across the town
    Don't judge it by the color, confuse it for another
    You might regret what you let slip away

    I'm the geek in the pink, pink, pink
    I'm the geek in the pink, yeah
    I'm the geek in the pink
    All y'all, it's the new color for fall Writer/s: Ian Douglas Sheridan, Jason Thomas Mraz, Kevin Paul Kadish, Scott Spencer Storch

  • Jeff from Boston, MaI have no idea if this is true, but someone told me that Jason Mraz was in the studio working with a group of mostly African-American studio musicians, and felt that the musicians were a little wary of him (Mraz) being a not very cool-looking white guy wearing a pink shirt. On the spot, Mraz began to improvise this song as a joking way of showing them what he could do.
  • Taylor from San Antonio, Txthis song is freakin great everytime im in a bad mode i turn it on my ipod and im instantly cheered up
