Baba Brinkman - Get It From Reading lyrics

[Baba Brinkman - Get It From Reading lyrics]

Well, some people get it from eating
And other people get it from breeding
Well I can get a thrill from these things
But, I can even get it from

I got some nasty reading habit's
Some Breaking Bad
Season finale reading habit's
I'm speed addict-needy when I'm
Fiending for chapters
In a Million Little Pieces, but in my case
It really happens!
I gotta feed this savage beast, indeed
They should call this "The Nymphomatic EP"
Cause, I'm seekin' affiliates
Ideas gettin' busy
From Ed Wilson to Matt Ridley
Reachin' Consilience
The unification of knowledge is my policy
Jared Diamond put me up onto biogeography
Guns, Germs, and Steel


Real history following
A little bit too complicated for Mitt Romney
No apology, I read myself to sleep
Richard Dawkins hit me with the selfish gene
But, if my genes are
Predicted to breed selfishly
Then why do I keep more
Books than females with me?
Why I got my face stuck in The Blank Slate?
Tell me Stephen Pinker
Is this helpin' me get laid?
Or is it cheesecake? All I want is a taste
Of knowledge, like a moth to a flame
Well, some people get it from eating
And other people get from breeding
Well I can get a thrill from these things
But, I can even get it from reading
From reading? From reading
I can even get it from reading
Cause, I need it i need it so bad

This need to read, it needs to get explained
It supersedes my need to breed
That's pretty strange why should I be more
Concerned with getting brains
Than getting brains? Let's model it
With a steady state
Population of agents with nerdy people
And flirty people and worthy people
And people who are deceitful
And every generation sees a
Change in the ratio
Based on who survives and
Where the matings go
Some want the virtuous and
Some want the villainous
And some are attracted to
The flirty dumb ditzy-ness
But when the chips are down
And someone's gonna get the short end of it
You'll see the "dork benefit"
I'm talkin' about environmental context
That gives the content of your
Brain a strong test
And those who pass the test get the conquest
Of the resources, a cleverness contest
I gotta get prepped
So I'm on to the next tome
And that's why I'm less
Than sex-prone i'm obsessed
With game theory and how it affects thrones
Cause a mind needs books like
A sword needs a whetstone
Well, some people get it from eating
And other people get from breeding
Well I can get a thrill from these things
But, I can even get it from reading
From reading? From reading
I can even get it from reading
Cause, I need it i need it so bad
