- Men In This Town LyricsIs there a prince in this fable
For a small town girl like me?
The good ones are gone or not able
And Matt Damon's not meant for me
Damon's not meant for me, damnit!
I got to say
California is a place that I respect
Come on LA
Take advantage, give me a night that I won't forget
I went to look
From the Sky Bar to the Standard, nothing took
These boys don't care
Got a handful with their projects and with their looks
Where are all the men in this town?
And what's a girl supposed to do?
Did they all run off when they knew
That I was coming 'round, coming 'round?
Where are all the men in this town?
And what's a girl supposed to do?
Did they all run off when they knew
That I was coming 'round, coming 'round?
Fresh
I'm so fresh, I'm so clean
Got the lips and got the skin
Got the skin, got that thing
I'm so fresh and I'm so
Is there a prince in this fable
For a small town girl like me?
The good ones are gone or not able
And Matt Damon's not meant for me
Damnit again
I never dreamed that I'd come here
To become the next Jolie
But I sure know there's someone, around somewhere
Who's meant to be
Where are all the men in this town?
And what's a girl supposed to do?
Did they all run off when they knew
That I was coming 'round, coming 'round?
Where are all the men in this town?
And what's a girl supposed to do?
Did they all run off when they knew
That I was coming 'round, coming 'round?
Fresh
I'm so fresh, I'm so clean
Got the lips and got the skin
Got the skin got that thing
I'm so fresh and I'm so
Fresh
I'm so fresh, I'm so clean
Got the lips and got the skin
Got the skin got that thing
I'm so fresh and I'm so
So they say
It's a suicide, waiting, others say
It's a suicide, waiting, yo no se
It's a suicide waiting, another day
It's a suicide waiting
So decide, it's a suicide waiting, all this time
It's a suicide waiting, donde estas?
It's a suicide waiting, so decide
It's a suicide waiting
For a small town girl like me?
The good ones are gone or not able
And Matt Damon's not meant for me
Damon's not meant for me, damnit!
I got to say
California is a place that I respect
Come on LA
Take advantage, give me a night that I won't forget
I went to look
From the Sky Bar to the Standard, nothing took
These boys don't care
Got a handful with their projects and with their looks
Where are all the men in this town?
And what's a girl supposed to do?
Did they all run off when they knew
That I was coming 'round, coming 'round?
Where are all the men in this town?
And what's a girl supposed to do?
Did they all run off when they knew
That I was coming 'round, coming 'round?
Fresh
I'm so fresh, I'm so clean
Got the lips and got the skin
