| I LOVE this song. This is my favorite on the new album, however I think the line "From hero to zero " should be "From zero to hero". | |

| I LOVE THIS SONG!! lol but what does this mean? So what I've got a short attention span a coke in my hand Because I'd rather have the afternoon, relax and understand Mm hip hop and flip flops it don't stop with the light rock A shot to mock you kinda puts me in the tight spot The hype is nothing more than hoo-hah | |

| He's telling a girl not to judge him just because he's kind of nerdy and to not judge him based on her past relationships with assholes because that's not him. She could be missing out on the best sex/relationship with him just because he's not the "typical" attractive male specimen. His lyrics are pretty straight forward here. | |

| i agree that this song has a hidden meaning of sex and he tries to discretely hide it by just putting emphasis and that it is also about him not being the same person he was or hes not like any other guy anyones ever met | |

| I see this song as working on two levels...first is the don't judge me by my look. The second, and I find this very funny since the song begins "It's laundry day" is that this geek is awful at doing laundry....you know - everything comes out pink. | |

| this song is about sex I'm the geek in the pink. (PINK = lady parts) I can save you from Unoriginal dum-dums Who wouldn't care if you com...plete him or not (emphisis on com) it has to do a little with relationships, but its mainly saying he can satisfy | |

| i love this song. but i think where the first "im th geek in the pink" it should be "like the geek in the pink". and the second corus is pretty much all wrong. if you listen to the song as your reading the lyrics that part keeps saying "she" not you like it is in the lyrics. | |

| "Don't judge me by the color, confuse it for another" I think after being a high school cheerleader, he wants people to know that isn't gay... | |

| wrong lyric: "All y'all geek is the new color for fall" it's supposed to be "Pink/Geek is the color for Power." at least that's what he said in the studio version. | |

| This reminds me of one guy I know (male cheerleader, wears pink often.) And yet all the ladies love him. It's basically, hey, we could get together or we might not, I don't care either way. Mark my words, this is gonna be a hit single. Jason, you've done it again, my love. | |

| At first listen, I thought that this song was about interracial relationships. A minority cool girl, and a geeky white guy. o.O | |

| I agree with schnazzzberry! this whole song is filled with sexual innuendos especially the line 'Who wouldn't care if you com...plete him or not' if u take off the plete or not, u can see very clearly!! and also the part where he says 'If we never get down it shouldn't be the let down' is like an euphemism for having sex and the fact taht he isnt that arsed if they dont! ahaha i love it!! x 1 2 Next | |

| Best part: She was staring through the doorframe Eyeing me down like already a bad boyfriend Well she can get her toys out of the drawer then 'Cause I ain't comin' home, I don't need that attention, see Clearly he's telling her that, if she's going to be suspicious of him, he's leaving. She can just get out her vibrator. | |

| Also, more generalized I think it's about not judging a book by it's cover because you may be missing out. Don't worry so much what others think of you, just follow your heart. | |

| the entire song is a sexual innuendo. geek in the pink is the sexual organs and "I may be skinny at times but I'm fat full of rhymes" is about the erection "Pass me the mic and I'm a grab at it" masturbation. etc. etc. | |
