Nerd Girl

The girls I used to chase round

Were nothing but looks

Never cared bout the news I follow

Or my favorite books

Then I met you

And you showed me

To a different path

Now I'm reading you Dostoevsky

And you're doing my math

You're my nerd girl

An extraordinary mind

Brain is of a kind so unknown

You're my nerd girl

Unpreoccupied with style

The metal in your smile makes you shine

Hello how nice to meet you

I'm Janelle Monae

I wear tiny suits and bow ties

Some might call me strange

Most guys don't enlighten me

But I'm intrigued by you

I'm your nerd girl writing sci-fi

But now I'm riding you

You're my nerd girl

An extraordinary mind

Brain is of a kind so unknown

You're my nerd girl

Unpreoccupied with style

The metal in your smile makes you shine

I'm your nerd girl

Reading comics in the dark

My favorite station's NPR, yours too

You're my nerd boy

Love your awkward little walk

The way you stutter-talk like you do
