This ain't so stereotypical man,
Not for a stereotypical man,
It should be me that wants to get rid of you instead it's you that don't give a damn (what?),
It was meant to be a one night 'ting,
Nothing more than a little one night fling,
Now when I'm in need you're the one I ring I (I need you tonight).

I wanna sing, I wanna shout, I wanna scream 'til the tropes dry out:
- Boastful Rap: Frequently.
- Grief Song: "Read All About It" is one about Green's dad, who killed himself when he was young.
- Sampling: "Just Be Good To Green" samples "Dub Be Good to Me". "I Need You Tonight" samples the INXS song "Need You Tonight".
- Suspiciously Specific Denial: Towards the end of "I Need You Tonight", a song about a girl giving him the runaround, he makes the point of saying it's just a song and in Real Life women chase him, not the other way round.
