Blame It on the Girls Lyrics
He's got looks that books take pages to tell
He's got a face to make you fall on your knees He's got money in the bank to thank and I guess You could think he's livin' at ease Like lovers of the good book show -- what's the matter He's certain there is so much more -- what's the matter While you're wondering what the hell to do Are you wishing you were ugly like me? Blame it on the girls who know what to do Blame it on the boys who keep hitting/hating? on you Blame it on your mother for the things she said Blame it on your father but you know he's dead Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys Life could be simple but you never fail To complicate it every single time You could have children and a wife, a perfect little life But you blow it on a bottle of wine Like a baby you're a stubborn child -- what's the matter Always looking for an axe to grind -- what's the matter While you're wondering what the hell to do We were wishing we were lucky like you Blame it on the girls who know what to do Blame it on the boys who keep hitting/hating? on you Blame it on your mother for the things she said Blame it on your father but you know he's dead Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys Life could be simple but you never fail To complicate it every single time You could have children and a wife, a perfect little life But you blow it on a bottle of wine Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys Blame it on the girls Blame it on the boys

Though it isn't written here, there's a spoken part at the beginning that I love.
"So I was sitting there in the bar and this guy came up to me and said, 'My life stinks.' And I saw his gold credit card and I saw the way that he was looking at people across the room and I looked at his face and, you know, quite a good looking face, and I just said, 'Dude, your perspective on life sucks.'"
I think this song is about how everyone wants to be like someone else, but even the people who seem perfect have their own problems. This man is handsome, wealthy, seemingly confident with the opportunity of a perfect life right at his fingertips, but he's blowing it all because he's an alcoholic. Even worse he's [obviously] blaming the world for his problems instead of taking matters into his own hands and turning his life around.

It's basically about when you're a teenager and you blame everything on everyone else, not taking responsibility for your own actions. And the "poor pretty boy" mentioned in the video linked above is shown in the lines "While you're wondering what the hell to do/Are you wishing you were ugly like me?" It's sort of saying that the pretty boy of the story is so unhappy and blames all his problems on everyone else, and thinks that maybe if he's ugly, his life will be better but in reality, it's his attitude that needs to change, not his appearance.
And it's "Blame it on the boys who keep hitting on you"
