Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My boy, my boy, my boy
Don't love me like he promised
My boy, my boy, my boy
He ain't a man and sure as hell ain't honest

My

My boy's being sus and he don't know how to cuss
He just sounds like he's tryna be his father (Who are you?)
My boy's an ugly crier but he's such a pretty liar and by that I mean he said he'd "change"

My boy, my boy, my boy
Don't love me like he promised
My boy, my boy, my boy
He ain't a man and sure as hell ain't honest

My boy
My, my boy

My boy, my boy
(Alright dude, go trip over a knife)

My boy, my boy, my boy
Don't love me like he promised
My boy, my boy, my boy
He ain't a man and sure as hell ain't honest

You want me to be yours well then you gotta be mine
And if you want a good girl, then goodbye
You want me to be yours well then you gotta be mine
And if you want a good girl, then goodbye

Overall Meaning

In Billie Eilish's "MyBoi," the artist sings about a boy she is dating who has not lived up to his promises. The song starts with her repeating "My boy" three times, emphasizing her ownership over him, but quickly follows up with "Don't love me like he promised." By doing so, Eilish establishes that although she refers to him as "my boy," their relationship is not as perfect as it may seem.


Eilish goes on to describe the boy, saying he acts like he is trying to be his father and cannot swear properly. She also notes he is a terrible crier, but when it comes to lying, he is incredibly convincing. Despite all of this, she still repeats "My boy" multiple times, suggesting she is still in love with him despite his shortcomings.


The artist then introduces a new element, repeating "T-R-O-Y B-O-I-O" slowly, which spells out "Troy Boy," a producer who worked on many of Eilish's early tracks. The repetition of this phrase adds an interesting layer to the song and shows the collaborative nature of Billie's music.


Overall, the lyrics to "MyBoi" explore the complexities of love and relationships, showing that even in a situation that may seem perfect on the surface, there is often more going on beneath the surface.
