When you were young you decided to become a guitarist to get the chicks
But when you tried to join a band they already had 3 guitarist
So you decided to become a bass player
So you became a bass player figuring you could still get the chicks
Soon you found out the chicks don’t love bass players so you got no chicks
Don’t decide to become a bass player and you’ll get the chicks |

I'm guessing this is another topic to get bass players riled up...lame. If you're really in it for the "chicks" only, don't ever bother becoming a musician.

It has to do with how most bass players just stand as far back as possible from the front of the stage. And they don't have the moves that attract the chicks - (like looking at the drummer through a song is going to attract a chick?)
Don't blame your bass, bro.
Stand up front and shake your thang - and sing! Damnit, sing! |

I have always played bass. I'm learning guitar now. |

Edit: Just realized this was in the Humor section.... My Bad....
