Head Nod

When you’re walking through the campus
And you don’t want to say «hi»
You give 'em the head nod (Head nod)
There’s no time to stop and talk
You’re just passing by
So you give 'em the head nod
«What's up?» (What's up)
Is an appropriate response to
«What's up?» (What's up)
«Nothing» (Nothing)
Is also an appropriate response to
«What's up?» (What's up? Nothing. What’s up?)
There’s no time to elaborate
Your class has started and you’re already late
So you say «What's up?» (What's up)
«How you doin'?»
Is basically the same as what’s up
It’s no better, it’s no worse
Just follow the directions I gave you
In the last verse (last verse)
But if they mention your name
As you’re walking through the campus
Then that means they really like you (They really like you)
If they mention your name
It’s so much better than a head nod
It’s better than «What's up?»
It’s better than «How you doin'?» (Head)
If they mention your name (Head, head, head)
It’s so much better than a head nod
It’s better than «What's up?»
When they mention your name (It's so much better)
(Head, head, head)
When they mention your name
