Bad Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To watch the news on TV
I saw some ordinary slaughter
I saw some routine atrocity
My father said, don't look away
You got to be strong, you got to be bold, now
He said, that in the end it is beauty
That is going to save the world, now
And she moves among the sparrows
And she floats upon the breeze
She moves among the flowers
She moves something deep inside of me
I was walking around the flower show like a leper
Coming down with some kind of nervous hysteria
When I saw you standing there, green eyes, black hair
Up against the pink and purple wisteria
You said, "Hey, nature boy, are you looking at me
With some unrighteous intention?"
My knees went weak
I couldn't speak, I was having thoughts
That were not in my best interests to mention
And she moves among the flowers
And she floats upon the smoke
She moves among the shadows
She moves me with just one little look
You took me back to your place
And dressed me up in a deep sea diver's suit
You played the patriot, you raised the flag
And I stood at full salute
Later on we smoked a pipe that struck me dumb
And made it impossible to speak
As you closed in, in slow motion
Quoting Sappho, in the original Greek
She moves among the shadows
She floats upon the breeze
She moves among the candles
And we moved through the days
And through the years
Years passed by, we were walking by the sea
Half delirious
You smiled at me and said, babe
I think this thing is getting kind of serious
You pointed at something and said
Have you ever seen such a beautiful thing?
It was then that I broke down
It was then that you lifted me up again
She moves among the sparrows
And she walks across the sea
She moves among the flowers
And she moves something deep inside of me
She moves among the sparrows
And she floats upon the breeze
She moves among the flowers
And she moves right up close to me (something deep inside of me)
The song "Boy" by Bad is a poetic expression of a boy's journey into adulthood, his encounters with love and the influence of his father's advice. The opening lines of the song depict the boy sitting down to watch the news on TV and witness "ordinary slaughter" and "routine atrocity". His father advises him to be strong and bold, stating that it is beauty that will ultimately save the world. This can be interpreted as a call to focus on the positive elements of life, despite the bleakness often portrayed in the media.
The second verse takes on a different tone, with the boy experiencing love and attraction. He attends a flower show and encounters a woman with green eyes and black hair standing against a backdrop of pink and purple wisteria. The woman challenges him, questioning his intentions, and the singer is overwhelmed with thoughts he cannot express. This can be seen as a metaphor for the confusion and insecurity of first love.
The final verse sees the singer reflecting on the passage of time and how love has changed him. The woman he met at the flower show remains a powerful force in his life, representing beauty and an indescribable feeling that she "moves something deep inside of me". The repetition of this phrase throughout the song cements the idea that love and beauty have a profound impact on our lives.
Overall, "Boy" is a poignant and introspective song that inspires the listener to reflect on their experiences with love and the role of beauty in the world.

Part of that song says, "One thing my dad told me was, "Never let your woman know when you're insecure"
So I put Gucci on the fur
And I put my wrist on iceberg
One thing my heart tells me is, "Flex on a hoe every time they're insecure"
I guess you came through
I'm running from you"
I just saw men in the comments say they aspire to be like that man.
Is that really what you believe about women? Is that who you want to be? a manipulative, lying, dishonest, unethical, machiavellian, egotistical, overbearing, addicted brick wall that shows no emotion whatsoever because they're too cowardly to show it?
If so, PLEASE, I beg you to be honest with women about who you are. I beg you not to lie to them and act like you don't believe the lyrics of the man you aspire to be like.
"flex on a hoe every time they're insecure" ... Do you know what that means? "flex on" means dominate and abuse her when she's insecure. Instead of build her up, be there for her, be a real human, that's what he's encouraging you to be. Just tell me: is that what you want to be? Be honest. If you're a monster, the least you can do is be honest about it.
Sometimes you just don't want the woman as a human being and that's okay. You want sex. Be introspective about what you want. You want an item not a human. You have money and all, just go hire a prostitute. No emotions. No need to manipulate or buy dinners. Exactly what you want: the item.
If you like his beats, that's different. There are many rappers using exactly the same beats but they say messages that are deep, altruistic, and worthwhile. Why not listen to that? It's still rap.
