Fantasia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like ain't nobody suppose to know.
Say You Been Working but Get in Bed
Smelling just like fresh bar of soap. (soap)
Ask you about it, you just turn ya back
And get mad and just fall asleep, (sleep)
Got a lot on ya mind and a argument
Baby you trippin'
It don't go that way
This ain't a movie
Or a Tyler Perry play
If you really wanted to mess around
That's all you had to say
But it ain't gonna be itty bitty silly me
So don't waste ya energy.
[Chorus]
Expect me to listen
When all I keep hearin'
Is You spitting nothing bt game
Expect me to stay
When all you can say
One day everything'll change
Don't wanna leave , wanna believe
That you won't do me wrong
But it's starting to
Bore me, Bore me, Bore me (hm, yawn)
I ain't yelling, I'm telling
You nothing but how I heard you getting down (down)
In the theatre with sister girl
Over on the other side of town. (hey.hey.hey.)
Ain't got no picture but you'll might as well
Have been walking right into me.
Ain't no way in the hell immuh let it ride
But you do it to me
Baby you trippin'
It don't go that way
This ain't a movie
Or a tyler perry play
If you really wanted to mess around
That's all you had to say
But it ain't gonna be itty bitty silly me
So don't waste ya energy.
[Chorus]
I'm telling you
That I refuse to let it go
Down like this
Baby girl,
You must've bumped ya head
Everytime you go assuming
You know you make a fool out of you
Got them other girls out of my world
And your the only one
I'm tryna make this clear
Hope you feel me my dear (ooh)
How You Gonna expect me
[Repeat: x2]
Expect me to listen
When all I keep hearin' Fantasia,
Is You spitting nothing but game
(you spitting nothing but game)
Expect me to stay Fantasia,
When all you can say
(Why You Be In my Mind, Got Me Telling lies)
One day everything'll change
Don't wanna leave, wanna believe
That you won't do me wrong
But it's starting to Fantasia
(But You starting To Bore Me)
Bore Me, Bore Me, Bore Me (hm yawn)
The lyrics of Fantasia's "Bore Me" seem to be about a woman who suspects her partner of cheating. The opening lines suggest that the man is sneaking around and trying to hide his activities from his girlfriend. When she confronts him about it, he becomes defensive and refuses to engage in the conversation. The woman is frustrated because her partner keeps making promises about how things will change but nothing actually changes.
The lyrics also suggest that the woman is torn between her desire to believe her partner and her growing suspicion that he is cheating. She is tired of hearing empty promises and wants her partner to take meaningful action to address the problems in their relationship. The chorus seems to suggest that the woman is becoming bored with her partner's behavior and is ready to move on.
Overall, "Bore Me" is a song about the frustration and pain that can come with a partner's infidelity. The lyrics capture the mixed emotions that people feel when they suspect that their partners are cheating – the hope that things will get better and the disappointment when they don't.
