My boyfriend wants to talk
My boyfriend talks too much
Too much about our love
Our love is not enough

My boyfriend wants to talk
My boyfriend talks too much
Too much about our love

Uh-ha

Every day's the same
I wake up he's in my bed
He tries to make me breakfast
But I hate bacon and eggs

He says I make him nervous
But he only makes me bored
All the pretty things I want
He just can't afford

My friends all think he's nice
My friends all think he's great
But they don't have a clue
That he won't reciprocate

Uh-ha

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Confidence Man's song "Boyfriend" depict the story of a girl who is unsatisfied with her current relationship. The girl's boyfriend talks too much, and when he does, it's mainly about their love. She feels that their love is not enough and all her boyfriend is to her is a repeat of what she had before. The girl expresses that not only is their relationship mundane and monotonous, her boyfriend is unable to provide her with the things that she desires. Despite her friends thinking that he's nice, the girl feels that her boyfriend is not reciprocating her feelings, and she's unable to connect with him on any level. The chorus is mainly a repetition of the fact that the boyfriend talks too much and their love is not enough for the girl.
