Sumblime - Badfish
Thursday, October 26
When you grab a hold of me
Tell me that I'll never be set free
But I'm a parasite creep and crawl I step into the night
Two pints of booze
Tell me are you a badfish too? (Are you a badfish too?)
Ain't got no money to spend
I hope the night will never end
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef
Baby your a big blue whale
Grab the reef when all duck diving fails
I swim but I wish I've never learned
The water's too polluted with germs
I dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
Grab the reef underneath my bed
It's underneath my bed
Ain't got no quarrels with God
Ain't got no time to grow old
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef
Ain't got no quarrels with God
Ain't got no time to get old
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef
Tell me that I'll never be set free
But I'm a parasite creep and crawl I step into the night
Two pints of booze
Tell me are you a badfish too? (Are you a badfish too?)
Ain't got no money to spend
I hope the night will never end
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef
Baby your a big blue whale
Grab the reef when all duck diving fails
I swim but I wish I've never learned
The water's too polluted with germs
I dive deep when it's ten feet overhead
Grab the reef underneath my bed
It's underneath my bed
Ain't got no quarrels with God
Ain't got no time to grow old
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef
Ain't got no quarrels with God
Ain't got no time to get old
Lord knows I'm weak
Won't somebody get me off of this reef

Mating and dating
Wednesday, October 11
UT evolutionary psychologist Norm Li on his recent mating and dating research: Self-reported "physical attractiveness [was] a necessity for men and resources for women, but that as budgets increased, individuals didn’t necessarily demand higher levels of attractiveness and resources." e.g., we want a well-rounded partner after get what we think we want initially, or that maybe we do need, -- attractiveness (bling?) and resources (bling bling?)
"How, then, do we find the perfect mate? Li says we come to understand both our own mating budgets and what we are looking for. Basically, then, we recognize a bargain when we see it." Link
Or you could go for romance, intimacy, and the like:

Or you could go for romance, intimacy, and the like:
I'd pay any price just to get you
I'd work all my life and I will
To win you I'd stand naked, stoned and stabbed
I'd call that a bargain
The best I ever had
