Strum
D-DU-UDU
Here  we go, I'm  hanging out in  Camden
Drinkin  with my girlfriends on a  Saturday night
This  guy says, "come  and meet my girlfriend"
 She's sitting  in the corner looking rather  uptight
So  I say "hello"  and I try  to be nice
But  I see he's feeling itchy
Trying  to play us off each  other,
"Girls,  girls, please don't  fight" (you get the picture)
Hey  you, the muscles  and the long  hair
 Telling me  that women are superior  to men
Most  guys just don't  appreciate  this
 You just try  convincing me you're better  than them
So  he talks for hours  about his sensitive soul
 And his favorite  subject is sex
I  don't think he even  wanted it
 Whatever, Christ  this guy's too  much (I wanna tell him)
I'm  as human as  the next girl,
I  like a bit of flattery
 But I  don't need your practiced  lines, your  school of charm mentality  so
Save  your breath for  someone else  and credit me  with something more
When  it comes to men  like you,
I  know the score,
 I've heard  it all before
 (Here comes the next one)
 Blondie was with me for a summer
 He flirted like a maniac but I wouldn't bite
 I'm weak and he was so persistent
 He only had to have me 'cause I put up a fight
 Oh God,  the boy had such  an ego
 He liked  to talk about himself  all day and all  night
 You think  you're such  a ladykiller
 But you  were nothing special  'til you turned out the  light
When  he's nice to me  he's just nice to himself
 And he's  watching his reflection
I'm  a five foot mirror for adoring  himself
Here's  seven years bad  luck (I wanna tell him)
When  you say you love  me you're just flattering  your vanity
 But I  don't need your practiced  lines, your school  of charm mentality  so
Save  your breath for someone  else and credit  me with something  more
When  it comes to men  like you,
I  know the score,
I've  heard it all before
Ooh,  you're such  a ladykiller, always  on a winner, thinking  that you're in there
Oh  boy, you're such a ladykiller, super  sexy mister, call  it what you will, oh
You  think you're such a ladykiller, I  just bet you're still there, posing  in the mirror
Hey  girls, he's such a ladykiller, but  we know where he's coming from and we  know the score.
