(* single notes)
hes been trying with limited success
to get this girl let him get into her dress
but every time he thinks hes getting close
she threatens death before he gets a chance
and thats the way it is in Minnesota
thats the way it is in Oklahoma
thats the way its been since protozoa
first climbed onto the shores of California
shes been trying with limited success
to get him to turn out the lights and dance
cause like a--ny girl all she really wants
is that fickle little bitch romance
that fickle little bitch romance
and that is why a girl is called a tease
and that is why a guy is called a sleaze
and thats why god made escort agencies
one life to live and mace and GHB
and thats the way it is in Minnesota
thats the way it is in Oklahoma homa
thats the way since the animals and Noah
first climbed onto shores of California
must not be too kind
stop thinking love is blind
clench your fists, yeah right
"she's just not my type"
why all these conflicting spe-ci-fi-ca-tions
maybe to prevent over-popu---la-tion
all I know is that all around the nation
the girls are cryin' the boys are masturbatin
the girls are cryin the boys are masturbatin
and thats the way it is in Minnesota
thats the way it is in Oklahoma homa
thats the way Aristophanes and Homer
wrote the Illiad and Lysistrata
thats the way it is in Minnesota
thats the way it is in Oklahoma homa
thats the way since the ancient protozoa
first climbed onto the shores of California
