Lyrics

I've known a few  
who thought they were   smart
But you've got   right down to an  
You think you're a  
you drive me up the  
You're a regular   know-it-all

Oh-oo-oh, you think you're  
Oh-oo-oh, you think you're something else

Okay, so you're a   scientist
That don't impress me much
So you got the   ,
but have you got the touch
Don't get me wrong, I think you're alright
But that won't keep me  
in the middle of the night
That don't impress me much

I never knew a guy
who carried a   in his  
And a   up his sleeve - just in case
And all that extra hold   in your hair
oughtta lock it
'Cause Heaven forbid it should fall out of  

Oh-oo-oh, you think you're special
Oh-oo-oh, you think you're something else

Okay, so you're Brad Pitt
That don't impress me much
So you got the   , but have you got the touch
Don't get me wrong, yeah, I think you're alright
But that won't keep me warm

You make me take   my

I can't believe you   your car

Whatever
That don't impress me

Meaning

“I remember I had a girl friend visiting me and it was near Christmas and we were baking cookies. I was writing this album and there was a scandal of [Pitt] and Gwyneth [Paltrow] where there was naked photos of him [in Playgirl magazine, which Pitt later successfully sued for publishing the paparazzi photos]. And this was like all the rage. I just thought 'I don't know what all the fuss is about.' I'm like, well that don't impress me much, I mean what is all the fuss. We see people naked every day. That's really what I thought. I wasn't picking on Brad Pitt. But that was just the association in that moment and things we make fusses about and whatever. Of course, it could have been any gorgeous guy.”
