BOYSHIT
Madison Beer Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I swear when you talk you just like the sound
One too many times I let you ruin my life 'cause
I thought you would change but I see it now
All the yellin' and kissin' and fightin'
We never could see eye to eye
'Cause you must seem like a man but you're not one in your mind
To call you and see how you're doin'
But I couldn't understand you if I tried
I don't speak boyshit
You're always coming back but your love's poison
So I think that I would rather just avoid it
I can't understand you 'cause I don't speak boy, no
I don't speak, I don't speak, I don't speak boyshit
Don't know how to talk or communicate
We're so on and off, to you it's a game
If you don't level up I'm leavin' you in the dust, yeah
So I'm movin' on until you start tryna act your age, yeah
'Cause I don't speak boyshit
You're always coming back but your love's poison
So I think that I would rather just avoid it
I can't understand you 'cause I don't speak boy, no
I don't speak, I don't speak, I don't speak
All the yellin' and kissin' and fightin'
We never could see eye to eye, yeah
You must seem like a man but you're not one in your mind
Yeah, I'm back on my shit and it's temptin'
To call you and see how you're doin'
But I couldn't understand you if I tried
'Cause I don't speak boyshit (shit, shit, shit)
Boyshit (shit, shit, shit)
'Cause I don't speak boy, no
Boyshit (shit, shit, shit)
'Cause I don't speak boyshit
Still tryna get through to you, it's pointless
You might have a way with words but I'm a woman
I can't understand you 'cause I don't speak boy, no
I don't speak, I don't speak, I don't speak boyshit
I don't speak boyshit
I don't speak boyshit
'Cause I don't speak boy, no
I don't speak, I don't speak, I don't speak boyshit
Madison Beer's song "BOYSHIT" is about the frustration of dealing with a partner who does not communicate well and has a habit of breaking promises. The lyrics speak to a relationship that has gone through its fair share of ups and downs, with one partner always coming back and the other feeling powerless to resist. Beer tackles this problem by asserting her independence and refusing to speak "boyshit", i.e., insincere promises, empty words, and toxic behavior.
The opening lines "I'm lettin' you in, you're lettin' me down" set the tone for the song. Beer is admitting that she has allowed her partner into her life, only for him to disappoint her repeatedly. She says that "when you talk you just like the sound," suggesting that his words have lost their meaning and are no longer enough to convince her. She goes on to admit that she has let him ruin her life in the past but has now realized that he is not capable of changing.
The chorus is where Beer really drives home her point. She repeats that she doesn't speak "boyshit" and that his love is poison. She says that she would rather avoid him altogether than subject herself to his empty promises. The bridge is a final plea for him to act his age and communicate honestly, but she admits that she probably won't be able to understand him even if he does.
Overall, "BOYSHIT" is a powerful statement about the importance of communication and the damage that can be done when partners don't speak honestly with each other.

definitely. it must be frustrating, even tho she is thankful for her fans, but her music is often overlooked by her beauty
effing eff
For real. It's sad she blew up only because she's pretty. Well, i knew her since Justin Bieber helped promoting her back then. That's why she always wanted for more people to appreciate her in music.
