Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You don’t have to home all alone
Get into it
I see you acting like you’re talking on your phone
But boy I know what
I know what you’re missing tonight
You’re big and so strong
You need a little brother to boss around and play fight
You can hold me down I’ll let you in
Don’t pull me too close or I’ll pull you in
I can tell you like attention
That’s just the thing that I'm giving
I want to give you my
Faggoty attention
Baby that’ll make you feel right
With my faggoty attention
Baby all I need is tonight
I’ll change your life
And I won’t ask, won’t tell

Faggoty attention
The lyrics of Adam Joseph’s song “Faggoty Attention” suggest a sexual encounter and seduction between two men. The singer invites someone to spend the night with him, emphasizing that he’s big and strong and could use someone to play with. He offers the idea of submission to the one he’s trying to seduce, suggesting that he can relinquish control to him. The chorus features the repetition of “Faggoty Attention,” implying that the singer is willing to give his love interest attention while being acknowledged as an LGBTQ person by using the derogatory term.
The lyrics are intentionally controversial and can be seen as either empowering or reinforcing harmful stereotypes. They appear to celebrate the defiance of being comfortable with one’s identity, while shadowing over the toxic stigma associated with queer people. The lyrics are sharp and direct, projecting an image of the artists proposing the stereotype of the dominant-submissive relationship, all while promoting the idea that being gay or queer needs to be sexualized for attention.
