Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I could be your boy
And you could be mine
Oh oh oh oh oh
I could be you toy
It would be fine
Oh oh oh oh oh
I could be your boy
And you could be mine
Oh oh oh oh oh
Bring me all your joy
It would be fine
You are in or not
Coming after you
I am really hot
I know you are too
I could be your clown
I will make it right
Don't say a word
Stay over tonight

I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your boy)
Come on, rock my world
I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your boy)
Come on, rock my world
I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your boy)
Come on, rock my world
I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your boy)
Come on, rock my world

Oh oh oh oh oh

I can't be you girl
Look at yourself
Oh oh oh oh oh
Maybe you have taken me
For someone else
Oh oh oh oh oh
I can't be your girl
Tu me fatigue
Oh oh oh oh oh
This is not your world
Boy your out of your league
Oh oh oh oh oh

Popsicle French boy, sure of yourself
I could get to know you but I just want to dance
I'm gonna make it clear
Parler vous français
Ce n'est pas possible
Now, get out of my way

I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your boy)
Come on, rock my world
I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your boy)
Come on, rock my world
I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your girl)
Come on, rock my world
I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your boy)
Come on, rock my world
I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your boy)
Come on, rock my world
I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your boy)
Come on, rock my world
I could be your boy and you could be my girl
(I could be your girl)
Come on, rock my world
I could be your boy and you could be my girl




(I could be your boy)
Come on, rock my world

Overall Meaning

The song "Boys and Girls" by Dragonette and Martin Solveig is an upbeat and energetic track that explores the dynamic between two people who are attracted to each other. The lyrics suggest that the singer is interested in being the other person's partner, either romantically or sexually, and encourages them to come together and have fun. The chorus repeatedly emphasizes the desire to "rock my world," which can be interpreted to mean that the singer wants to have a passionate and exciting experience with the other person.


The first verse establishes the playful and flirtatious tone of the song. The singer offers to be the other person's "boy" or "toy," indicating that they are willing to fulfill any role that would make the other person happy. They also note that they are "hot" and believe that the other person is too, suggesting that there is a physical attraction between them. The second verse, however, presents a more complicated situation. The singer tells the other person that they cannot be their "girl" and that they are "out of their league," implying that there are barriers to their relationship that cannot be overcome. Despite this setback, the chorus continues to express the desire to come together and "rock my world," perhaps indicating that the attraction between the two is too strong to be ignored.


Overall, "Boys and Girls" is a fun and playful song that explores the dynamics of attraction and desire between two people. The lyrics suggest that the singer is willing to adapt to any role that would make the other person happy, but also acknowledges that there may be challenges to their relationship that cannot be overcome. Despite this, the song remains upbeat and energetic, emphasizing the excitement and passion that can come with a new relationship.
