I wasn't always such a magnet, I ain't the way I used to be
Wouldn't even think twice if I received a wink in my
General direction, it was no big deal 'til I hit puberty
Then lonesome with no one became life or death, my brain began thinking I
Always gotta got a girl
Always gotta got a girl
There's no point for the world; zero, none, nada, nil
If I don't always got a girl
High school, I fooled around a bit during junior, senior years
Then I rolled into college, this matter went from grey to white
Cuz I felt I knew what made me, me: whatever girl was between my ears
Convinced myself my health was in check, just kept repeating and saying I
Always gotta got a girl
Always gotta got a girl
There's no point for the world; zero, none, nada, nil
If I don't always got a girl, I always got to got a girl
The pain keeps growing, I keep towing this line, it's just a gut reaction
Hate being alone and not really knowing the line 'tween friends and true attraction
I feel at home when I hear the Stones sing 'I can't get no satisfaction'
Cuz though I'm open I end up broken, it's time for me to take some action
I'm a bigger man now, no relation crutches holding
I'm perfectly fine standing on my own two feet which implies I won't
Fall to desire like I have before, the real me is unfolding
I've come to my senses and finally realized I don't
Always gotta got a girl
Always gotta got a girl
There's a point for the world, I guess I oughta deal
That I don't always got a girl (I don't)
Always gotta got a girl
Always gotta got a girl
There's a point for the world, I guess I oughta deal
That I don't always got a girl
