Lyrics vary by performance; Adapted from the March 2, 2000 show


i might like you better if we slept together
i might like you better if we slept together
i might like you better if we slept together
but there's something in your eyes that says "maybe"
that's never, never ever say never

i might like you better if you hadn't fucked so many guys
i might like you better if you didn't have wooden thighs

never ever ever say never
