Check this out: The song “Laugh, Laugh” (1964) by The Beau Brummels perfectly describes this behavior by woman. Yet the Wikipedia page doesn’t even mention what the lyrics are or what the song is about, and there isn’t even a SongFacts page about it. A song like this would NEVER be released today.

Song lyrics:

I hate to say it but I told you so

Don't mind my preaching to you

I said "Don't trust him", baby, now you know

You don't learn everything there is to know in school

Wouldn't believe me when I gave advice

I said that he was a tease

If you want help you better ask me nice

So be sincere, convince me with a "pretty please"

Laugh, laugh, I thought I'd die

It seemed so funny to me

Laugh, laugh, you met a guy

Who taught you how it feels to be

Lonely, oh so lonely

Don't think I'm being funny when I say

You got just what you deserve

I can't help feeling you found out today

You thought you were too good; you had a lot of nerve

Won't say I'm sorry for the things I said

I'm glad he packed up to go

You kept on bragging he was yours instead

Found you don't know everything there is to know

Laugh, laugh, I thought I'd die

It seemed so funny to me

Laugh, laugh, you met a guy

Who taught you how it feels to be

Lonely, oh so lonely

Before I go I'd like to say one thing

Don't close your ears to me

Take my advice and you'll find out that being

Just another girl won't cause you misery

Don't say you can get any boy at your call

Don't be so smug or else

You'll find you can't get any boy at all

You'll wind up an old lady sitting on the shelf

Laugh, laugh, I thought I'd die

It seemed so funny to me

Laugh, laugh, you met a guy

Who taught you how it feels to be

Lonely, oh so lonely
