I'm Miss American Dream since I was seventeen
Don't matter if I step on the scene
Or sneak away to the Philippines
Then after finishing my download of Ciara's new album Fantasy Ride (oh it's so good I'm playing the whole of it in my next party), the song "Tell Me What Your Name Is" has this:Don't matter if I step on the scene
Or sneak away to the Philippines
I’m used to men approaching me
Tryna talk to me
Always tryna buy me things
Drinks to diamond rings
Fast cars, first class to the Philippines
Seriously, songwriters, what's up with this thankless promotion? And why try to make this wretched country seem like the south of France? Yes, that's right, foreigners should get the idea that the Philippines is a haven for the celebrities of the world so they could "sneak away" here "first class" only to be greeted by what, Manila traffic? Freaky weather? A government that tries to dumb down its people?Tryna talk to me
Always tryna buy me things
Drinks to diamond rings
Fast cars, first class to the Philippines
Don't get me wrong, I am not being cynical and I love that this wretched, wretched country is being recognized. I'm only saying that maybe we should start constructing an international airport in Palawan or Boracay so Britney and Ciara won't have to land in NAIA.
