I was tired of being approached by men in bars simply because of the way I look when they have no IDEA how crazy and messed up I am deep down.

A good-looking girl is approached by a male, and she tells him, "Looks are deceiving, I'm not worth pursuing." She then lists off all of her flaws and basically describes why she is such a "Disaster."

Lyrics
Baby slow down, you don't know what you're doing
Looks are deceiving, I'm not worth pursuing
Got issues with trust and I always complain
I'm greedy, I'm selfish, and somewhat insane
I'm cold like the winter, I never back down
There's rumors about what I've done around town
I constantly flirt and I break every rule
A black widow spider and love is for fools
I'm rough around the edges
I've jumped my share of ledges
And I've got more problems than Lindsay's mama
I'm never gonna change
I'm gonna stay deranged
A messed up girl in a screwed up world
So much caffeine that I can't even think
Sometimes I can't think until I've had a drink
I party like a rockstar fresh out of rehab
Obsessions with money that border on mad
I'm half a cigarette from taking up smoking
But I hate the habit...(no...I ain't joking)
On the bright side of things, I'm not a felon
But I've got some stories if you swear you ain't telling
I'm rough around the edges
I've jumped my share of ledges
And I've got more problems than Lindsay's mama
I'm never gonna change
I'm gonna stay deranged
A messed up girl in a screwed up world
Behind the lip gloss, behind these curls
I'm a scared and lonely girl
But don't try to cross me, 'cause boy if you do
I've got a body bag waiting for you
(You still want my number?)
[No...no...no....]
I'm rough around the edges
I've jumped my share of ledges
And I've got more problems than Lindsay's mama
I'm never gonna change
I'm gonna stay deranged
A messed up girl, I'm screwed up
I'm rough around the edges
I've jumped my share of ledges
And I've got more problems than Lindsay's mama
I'm never gonna change
I'm gonna stay deranged
A messed up girl in a screwed up world
I'm a disaster.
