I Don't Believe Them Boys

I don't believe them boys
When they say they want intellect
I have a ton of that
But he left me for some bigger breast
Checklist in hand
I am more than qualified
"Oops one thing missing
You're not Aphrodite personified"
Wondering why I have so many issues
"Not good enough magazine" I'm tryna cancel my subscription
Say you want brains
But mere beauty is your obvious mission
He said if I gave him brains
Then he'd give me more attention
Daddy. Daddy wasn't there.
Austin Powers. Dr. Evil
The basics of self-esteem
Daddy didn't teach 'em
Fellas always asking "Where's a girl's self-respect?"
Out the door with her father
Or on the floor with her dress
Didn't want to go that far
But how else can I ensure your love?
Oh, I never can. Thanks operator for the 411
Wish I woulda known before I sucked you up.
Man you're a tricky beast
But I don't feel like no beauty
Man that beauty is a beast
In the form of a booty
Man I can't stand those Disney movies
Ok I lied. I love those films.
But they got me thinking
Why can't the men in my life be like them?
For you, I compromised my very essence
In a since, you can say I'm pissed
Matter fact, I'm incensed
More at you or myself?
That's a question I ponder
Cuz it's my fault.
My heart I let you launder.
Why am I such a fool?
Learn from your mistakes. Take 59
Took a few tries, but I think I got it right
Don't date a dude that refers to you as a "downgrade"
"But I love your brains"
Yea, I bet you do
Do you love hers too?
Or do you love her two?
I'm just saying from my experience
I don't believe them boys when they say they want intellect
