Showed up in a tight dress
Thinking you′d be helpless all night
But you didn't notice
Really drove it home for the last time

Thought I wasn′t good enough
But that wasn't what it was (ah, ah)
It's almost a relief

There′s nothing wrong with me (ah, ah)

I know I love right, keep it tight
I′m a good kisser
You're on time, smell nice, stone cold killer
We should be a vibe, but something isn′t sitting right, at night

Yeah, I don't mind
Most times, I′m the giver
But how come my spoon's always bigger?
Maybe we should stop
Yeah, I know it′s not a choice, baby
Tell me if I'm wrong
(I just think you like a boy)

Whеn we were in Dublin
Think wе fell in love with the same guy
Walking past the front desk
Pictured him undressed at the same time (mmh)

Thought I wasn't good enough
But that wasn′t what it was (ah, ah)
It′s almost a relief
There's nothing wrong with me (ah, ah)

I know I love right, keep it tight
I′m a good kisser
You're on time, smell nice, stone cold killer
We should be a vibe, but something isn′t sitting right, at night

Yeah, I don't mind
Most times, I′m the giver
But how come my spoon's always bigger?
Maybe we should stop
Yeah, I know it's not a choice, baby
Tell me if I′m wrong
(I just think you like a boy)

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-oh
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-oh
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-oh
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

I know I love right, keep it tight
I′m a good kisser
You're on time, smell nice, stone cold killer
We should be a vibe, but something isn′t sitting right, at night

Yeah, I don't mind
Most times, I′m the giver
But how come my spoon's always bigger?

Overall Meaning

In Lauren Weintraub's song Like A Boy, she reflects on a past relationship and questions her partner's sexuality. The song begins with Weintraub, in a tight dress, assuming that her partner would be helpless all night. However, as the night progresses, Weintraub realizes that her partner is not interested in her sexually, and she questions if it was because she was not good enough. But, Weintraub realizes that it is not her fault and that she is perfect the way she is. She then goes on to list her positive qualities, like being a good lover and always being on time, while subtly suggesting that her partner might be more interested in men.

In the second verse, Weintraub reminisces about a trip to Dublin where she and her partner both fell in love with the same guy. Weintraub mentions that she pictured the guy undressed at the same time as her partner, further supporting her suspicion that her partner might be gay. The song ends with Weintraub suggesting that they should stop pretending and that her partner should be honest about their sexuality. Overall, the song is empowering as Weintraub accepts herself and encourages others to be honest about their sexual identity.

Showed up in a tight dress
I presented myself confidently and attractively

Thinking you′d be helpless all night

I made it clear that I am not to be underestimated or mistreated

Thought I wasn′t good enough
I believed I was inadequate or inferior

But that wasn't what it was (ah, ah)
My worth and value were not the issue

It's almost a relief
Realizing that I am enough is comforting

There′s nothing wrong with me (ah, ah)
I am whole and complete as I am

I know how to love and treat my partner well

I′m a good kisser

(Verse 1)
Showed up in a tight dress
Thinking you'd be helpless
All night
But you didn't notice
Really drove it home
For the last time

You're on time
Smell nice
Stone cold killer

(Verse 2)
When we were in Dublin
Think we fell in love with
The same guy
Walking past the front desk
Pictures him undressed
At the same time
