Don't Sleep With Mean People
Baba Brinkman

Yeah, this one goes out to the ladies!

Yeah, citizens of the world,

Let me tell you how it works if you’re new to this.

You can change it for the better:

Vote with your uterus!


Sexual selection is twisted; it’s not balanced

It gives us the best of our gifts and odd talents

Anything that’s useless for survival like music

Anything attractive, that charms and seduces

Like language usage, my vocab is so fab

I spin a web with it, and the centre is my gonads

It’s nothing but a mating dance I can admit it

But I can’t escape it, no chance, I’m locked in it

Like a tree, deep rooted, so people see through it

I’m a freak by nature thanks to evolution

But so are you, the relevant dramas that you’re goin’ through

Sexual selection selected them too

So if you feel the hormone rush, testify!

Try to see things objectively, but don’t objectify

It’s the eyes, they can’t take the pressure

They try to stare at your breasts but I can make an effort

The hours pass, my power’s sapped

I can’t choose an oblong physique over an hourglass

So it might seem like “mean” includes me

You can’t choose what to want, but you can choose what to eat


Don’t sleep with mean people – that’s the anthem

Please, think about your granddaughters and grandsons

Don’t sleep with mean people – pretty or handsome

Mean people hold the gene pool for ransom


Don’t sleep with mean people – that’s the anthem

Please, don’t reward your kids for throwin’ tantrums

Don’t sleep with mean people – pretty or handsome


If you wanna take the pledge, get your hands up


So what if we really did it, this silly business?

I mean use sex appeal to make a real difference

Like a field mission, to seek and enjoy

It’s gotta be the most powerful tool we can employ

We don’t need Freud; Darwin has the answers

Sexual selection can enhance us

Let’s make a competition out of altruism

If someone gives enough to charity, you’d better frolic with them

Generosity should be rewarded

And celibacy enforced on those who try to keep and hoard it

Of course I’m speaking mostly to women

‘Cause when it comes to reproduction you control the system

Men have a supporting role to play

But where you lead, best believe we’ll follow with no complaint

It’s time for a gender-based intifada

Aristophanes got it right with Lysistrata

More than two millennia ago, women in the know

Realized that it’s a lie that ‘men are in control’

So ladies, please, every time you fornicate

Just keep in mind, the future is yours to shape


Don’t sleep with mean people – that’s the anthem

Please, think about your granddaughters and grandsons

Don’t sleep with mean people – pretty or handsome

Mean people hold the gene pool for ransom


Don’t sleep with mean people – that’s the anthem

Please, don’t reward your kids for thrown’ tantrums

Don’t sleep with mean people – pretty or handsome

If you wanna take the pledge, get your hands up
