You should have listened to what mama said
And walked away with someone else instead
You should have listened to what grandma said
And married someone more like fred

You should have listened to your inner voice
While you had time and still a choice
You should have reached for the emergency brake
Before it was too late

[chrous:]
You see the clever girl looks for a clever boy
To another extent than the clever boy
Will ever look for a mate
Who goes to round-table debates
And runs a little bit late
When she does work for the state

You see the clever girls look for a clever boys
And then the clever boys seem to have a different choice
They want a good-looking chick
That likes to blow them away
Someone who laughs at all the
Funny little things they say

I have a friend who's in this mensa club
He has no trouble to admit
He wants a woman with ambitions
That go as far as raising kids

[chorus x3]
