Let's go explore
Boom hand it over
Boomkat comin' for ya take that
On the floor and just
Fake it, fake it
Let me see that dirty dance
I know, I know you want inside my flirty pants

Don't get it twisted
Boomkat's gonna flip it take that
To the limit move back
Are with it?
Let's get, get naked, naked
I thought I saw that dirty dance
I know, I know you want inside my flirty pants

[CHORUS:]
Here I come
You better run boy
Here I go
You better follow
Why us and me
You better run boy
Why us and me
You better run boy

Roll out my Lexus
Don't sweat my necklace
Don't you expect it
So 'pect it, I stand corrected
We're like a cavity
I'm anti-gravity
They call me suga
Shoulda known
So don't be mad at me

Hey good lookin'
Whatcha got cookin'
From the bayous
Out his house
Oh yeah what, what
Oh yeah what, what
Oh yeah, oh yeah

[CHORUS]

You be the fruit in the can
And I'll be the whip and the cream
And together we ambrosia like it ain't no thing
Like it ain't no thing, like it ain't no thing
Together we ambrosia like it ain't no thing

Let's go explore
Boom hand it over
Boomkat comin' for ya take that
On the floor and just
Fake it, fake it
Let me see that dirty dance
I know, I know you want inside my flirty pants

Don't get it twisted
Boomkat's gonna flip it take that
To the limit move back
Are with it?
Let's get, get naked, naked
I thought I saw that dirty dance
I know, I know you want inside my flirty pants

[CHORUS 2x]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Boomkat's song "Run Boy" appear to be about a woman who is confident and in control, and who is expressing her desire for a man. The song starts with her declaring her intention to explore and take charge, with the repeated line "Boom hand it over," which seems to be a demand for whatever the object of the song's desire may be. The woman then encourages the man to join her in a "dirty dance" and seems to indicate that she knows he wants to be with her based on the line, "I know you want inside my flirty pants."

The chorus of the song is a warning to the man to "run boy" if he can't keep up with her, with the repeated line, "Why us and me, you better run boy." The woman then goes on to describe herself as "anti-gravity" and "suga," indicating that she is both light and sweet or desirable. She ends the song by suggesting that she and the man make a great pair, using the metaphor of a fruit and cream dessert called ambrosia.

Overall, the song seems to be about female power and desire, with the woman taking control of the situation and leaving the man to either keep up or run away.
