[Verse 1]
She's a witch, a brat, a bonafide bore
What's more - she snores, and that is a fact
Cow eyes lie, yes it's time to resist
How did I ever get into this?
How could I ever have kissed that bitch?
So what if she has got big tits

[Chorus]
She's the kinda girl
Who changes her mind really quick
She's the kinda girl who
Won't just let things sit

[Verse 2]
She came like a cat like a cat to catnip
She came in my lap with her womanly hips
When I first met her I came unglued
When I played the part of a blue-blooded fool
I'm through with your sewage, I'm through with your trash
I always knew that I'd get the last laugh

[Chorus]
She's the kinda girl
Who changes her mind really quick
She's the kinda girl who
Won't just let things sit

[Verse 3]
Like two trains on one track are bound for a crash
Two red white and blues we were destined to clash
I can't fix the future, I can't change the past
Like fly by night news we were not meant to last
I'm through with your bluefish, I'm through with your gash
I'm through being screwed with by you and your wack attack
Jump back for chump love
You won't be back for cover
But no no no no
I'm no chump love sucker

[Bridge]
No chump love sucker
No chump love sucker
No chump love sucker
No chump love sucker

[Verse 5]
I thought that your love was a matter of fact
But I lost my pride when I realized that
The smack in my bag and my baseball bat
Was all you were after you dirty rat
She's a bitch and a brat and a living disaster
She thought she was fast, boys, but I was faster

[Bridge]
No chump love sucker
No chump love sucker
No chump love sucker
No chump love sucker
No chump love sucker
No chump love sucker
No chump love sucker
No chump love sucker

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are a rock band based in Los Angeles, CA that incorporates elements of rap, funk, punk, and rock into their work, mainly classified as an alternative rock band. They made it mainstream off the success of their 1991’s fifth studio album Blood Sugar Sex Magik, led by singles “Give it Away” and “Under the Bridge.” After losing guitarist John Frusciante and losing popularity following the release of the less successful One Hot Minute, the band reunited for 1999’s Californication. The title track and hit singles “Around the World,” “Scar Tissue” and “Otherside” propelled them back to the fame. After 2002’s solid release By the Way and 2006’s double-disc Stadium Arcadium, Frusciante once again left the band to further pursue his solo career. The band added Josh Klinghoffer to help fill his void, and released I’m With You in 2011.

In December 2019, the band announced via Instagram that Klinghoffer had left after 10 years, and Frusciante would be rejoining.

Their lyrical content was mostly centered around sex, drugs, and the Los Angeles lifestyle, and lead singer Anthony Kiedis mostly rapped them as he wasn’t confident as vocalist. Most members of the band also suffered from drug addiction, as Kiedis and Frusciante had to check themselves into rehab for heroin addiction at various points in their lives. But Californication marked a change in the band’s content matter and lifestyle. The band was sober for the most part, and the lyrics had shifted to songs about love and the pains of addiction, the title even criticized the city they loved so much. In addition, Kiedis had started to sing his lyrics much more often as he finally felt comfortable with his voice. That change has allowed the band to stick around for over 20 years despite multiple changes to their lineup and is part of why they remain relevant.
