Eat You Up
Boa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Boy, you have got to be the finest thing in history
The way I feel inside is just so hard to understand
You feed my appetite in ways I can't explain
I'll eat you up, your love, your love
I'll eat you up, your love, your love
Woah, I'll eat you up,
Woah, can't get enough,
Woah, oh oh, I think I'm in love
If you move any closer, boy, there is no guarantee
What I will do to you I fear it and it's scaring me
Like I've become some kind of demon in the night
You look so tasty, I could eat you up alive
I'll eat you up, your love, your love
I'll eat you up, your love, your love
Woah, I'll eat you up,
Woah, so yum yum
Woah, can't get enough,
Woah, oh oh, I think I'm in love
I'll eat you up, your love, your love
I'll eat you up, your love, your love
Woah, I'll eat you up,
Woah, so yum yum
Woah, can't get enough,
Woah, oh oh, I think I'm in love
Can't stop thinking 'bout the things I wanna do to you
If you move any closer you'd be asking for it too
I want your love, I need your touch
So much I think I'm in love
I'll eat you up, your love, your love
Woah, I'll eat you up,
Woah, so yum yum
Woah, can't get enough,
Woah, oh oh, I think I'm in love
I wanna take you to my room
I'll eat you up
I wanna take you to my room
Woah I'll eat you up,
Woah, so yum yum
Woah, can't get enough,
Woah, oh oh, I think I'm in love
I'll eat you up
I'll eat you up
I'll eat you up
I'll eat you up
I'll eat you up
I'll eat you up
I'll eat you up

There's a reason why BoA is still around. While everyone around her is in full melt down chaos mode it seems.
No wonder she is such an icon. To I think this was done 10 years ago just blows my mind seeing it now. Ahead of the curve doesn't even begin to describe it.
BoA isn't the queen she's the empress & to see how dysfunctional & off the tracks. Which the rest of the industry seems to be heading in.
With maybe the exception of P-Nation. You really do have to wonder maybe K-Pop needs to change course.
This nearly two decades of experience and training brings you. A bona fide diva, SM Represent!! :b

I just realized this was technically the first ever kpop song I heard when I was a small child.
@lylachuu
It's that weird nostalgic feeling where you hear a really old famous song.. And realize it was originally "kpop" ;v;
@riah3827
This was my first kpop song also. But I realized that 4 years ago when I found out BoA was actually a kpop idol lol
@marteriatalley9730
I was 7 years old when I watched this now I'm 15 time flies.
@sithlord_dani
omg sammmeeee!!!!! I was like 14 though
@limealemur
If you were a small child in 2008 you're probably still a child...
@cindermagus
She's such a great dancer and even though her dance is powerful and hip hop it's still feminine and graceful and her body doesn't move awkwardly when doing so. Wish girl groups danced more like BoA.
@tiny093010
AGREE
@darbywright865
True, but it's sad that when some girl groups do dance like this, they don't get any recognition 😔
I think some have even disbanded now
@minyoongz9989
Darby Wright the ark..
