Demön Bøy
Ezzy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why won't you be nice
(cuz I don't wanna be)
Demon boy
Won't you look in my black eyes
(Eat me like Adderall
Kiss me like Barbercide
You're always on my mind)
Kiss me like Barbercide
You're always on my mind
Eat me like Adderall
Kiss me like Barbercide
You're always on my mind
Eat me like Adderall
Kiss me like Barbercide
You're always on my mind
Your mom doesn't like me
So I sleep on the ground
My nightmares are whorish
My brain isn't sound
There's a god in my belly
And he won't cut his hair
So
Don't get me wrong
You've kidnapped my mind
But tell me why would
I throw it away for a girl as broken as you
Demon boy
Why won't you be nice
(cuz I don't wanna be)
Demon boy
Won't you look in my black eyes
(Eat me like Adderall
Kiss me like Barbercide
You're always on my mind)
Eat me like Adderall
Kiss me like Barbercide
You're always on my mind
(you're always on my mind)
Eat me like Adderall
Kiss me like Barbercide
You're always on my mind
(you're always on my mind)
Eat me like Adderall
Kiss me like Barbercide
You're always on my mind
(you're always on my mind)
The song "Demon Boy" by Ezzy is about a dysfunctional and twisted relationship between two individuals, one of whom is described as a demon boy. The first two lines of the chorus, "Demon boy, why won't you be nice? / (Cuz I don't wanna be)," are an indication of the demon boy's callous and cruel nature that he chooses not to amend. The singer of the song seems to be in love with the demon boy, but she is aware that the relationship is destroying her. She wants the demon boy to finally be kind to her, but he continues to treat her poorly.
The first verse of the song further alludes to the craziness that surrounds the singer. She wants the demon boy to devour her like Adderall, a prescription drug that curbs attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and kiss her like Barbercide, a brand of sterilizing solution for barbering tools. The singer is evidently seeking a destructive relationship that will "eat" her up and leave nothing behind, but she still has the demon boy on her mind. The second verse mentions the singer's unsettling nightmares and the craziness going on in her head. The line "there's a god in my belly / and he won't cut his hair" suggests the presence of an uncontrollable and rebellious force within the singer.
Overall, "Demon Boy" portrays a destructive and twisted love story between two non-conforming individuals. The lyrics suggest that the singer is well aware that the relationship is not healthy, but she cannot help herself from falling deeper and deeper into the chaotic world of the demon boy.
