Overall Meaning

The song "Boys" by Killer Pussy is a punk rock song that portrays a woman's desire for a date or a mate solely for sexual interaction. The song begins with the woman expressing her need for a date, and it is unimportant who it is, as long as she gets a "screw." The lyrics suggest that she is looking for a dominant male partner who is big, tough, and rough, and who can bring her pain. The woman has arranged a date with her prospective partner, and she is eagerly waiting for it while donning leather and chains.

The song is an assertive and explicit statement of female sexuality, where women are depicted as having the same sexual appetites as men. The lyrics challenge the societal norms that women are passive and more emotionally involved in relationships, while men are more interested in casual sex. The song conveys a sense of empowerment as it asserts that women can have their sexual desires and fantasies without any shame.
