This song has probably been around for a long time but I only discovered it recently. It has a cute catchy tune and the lyrics are funny because they are all cheesy pick up lines. Haha.
The lyrics are here and there are more of those funny pick up lines here.
Speaking of amusing pick up lines, here are a few that were actually used on me in real life. Some guys are sooo bolero!*
(While planting Mangrove saplings in Hundred Islands.)
Guy: (says something I don’t understand)
Me: Sorry, hindi ko narinig, ano yun ulet? (Sorry, I didn’t hear, what was that again?)
Guy: Ganyan talaga ang mga maganda, bingi. (Pretty girls are like that, deaf.)
(While attending a corporate function, I notice that the hired host is very pretty.)
Me: Ang ganda ng host ano? As in, super nagagandahan talaga ako sa kanya. (The host is so pretty, isn’t she? I find her very very pretty indeed.)
Guy: Hindi naman. Cute lang. (pause) Parang ikaw, cute lang. (Not really. She’s just cute. (pause) Like you, just cute.)
(I’m on my way to the gym back in Makati when a foreigner approaches me.)
Guy: Hi. You look familiar.
Me: Oh. Where do you work?
(Silly me, I thought that since we were near our office, maybe he’s one of the expats. Turns out it was just an excuse to get my number.)
(Over the phone with a guy who is looking for a colleague of mine.)
Me: I’m sorry but Ah Fatt’s not here, can I give you his cellphone number instead?
Guy: Your cellphone number?
Me: No, his cellphone number. Why would I give my number?
Guy: You have one, don’t you?
(Talking to a salesman, trying to decide which phone case to buy.)
Me: Alin ba dito ang mas maganda? (Which one is prettier?)
Salesman: Ikaw. (You)
(Inside a cab.)
Driver: Are you married?
Me: No.
Driver: Why not?
Me: Just haven’t found the right guy, I guess.
Driver: You never know who he might be. It could be me. So you should get my number because you never know!
(I obviously didn’t get his number.)
*Bolero – not the jacket. This means a guy who tells flattering lies just to hook up with a girl.
