I Wasn't Really A Nerd

[Jim Colyer]

I Wasn't Really A Nerd
Though I had tendencies
Maverick was my TV show
Got into astronomy
Had my movie magazines
Beat off to Julie Newmar
Had my baseball cards
Croquet in the backyard

I Wasn't Really A Nerd
Though some might call me geek
I took three years of Latin
Which I never learned to speak
I was into Top 40
Beat off to Juliet Prowse
Been dead twenty years
And those legs still arouse

I finally kissed a girl
When I was 17
My sister's friend
Her name was Jean

I Wasn't Really A Nerd
Though I had tendencies
Maverick was my TV show
Got into astronomy
Followed the New York Yankees
Played second base
Embarrassed by
Pimples on my face
