Beautiful Monster
Ne-Yo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the hereafter
I've never seen
Seen one like you
You're a knife
Sharp and deadly
And it's me
That you cut into
But I don't mind
In fact I like it
Though I'm terrified
I'm turned on but scared of you, oh
She's a monster
Beautiful monster
Beautiful monster
But I don't mind
And I need her
Said I need her
Beautiful monster
But I don't mind
No I don't mind (I don't mind I don't I don't mind)
No I don't mind (I don't mind I don't I don't mind)
No I don't mind (I don't mind I don't I don't mind)
No I don't mind (I don't mind I don't I don't mind)
In her eyes
There's love and fire
And my heart
She's burning through
But I don't mind
In fact I like it
Though I'm terrified
I'm turned on but scared of you
She's a monster (she's a monster)
Beautiful monster (beautiful monster)
Beautiful monster (beautiful monster yeah)
But I don't mind (I don't mind)
And I need her (and I need her)
Said I need her (said I need her)
Beautiful monster (whoa)
But I don't mind (I don't mind I don't I don't mind)
No I don't mind
Playing with my heart, mmm
And she's playing with my mind
And I don't mind I don't I don't mind
No I don't mind I don't I don't mind
No I don't mind I don't I don't mind
No I don't mind I don't I don't mind
(I don't mind I don't I don't mind) And I don't mind
(I don't mind I don't I don't mind) Said I don't mind
(I don't mind I don't I don't mind) And I don't mind
(I don't mind I don't I don't mind) Beautiful monster
She's a monster (she's a monster)
Beautiful monster (beautiful monster)
Beautiful monster (ooh)
But I don't mind (but I don't mind)
And I need her (and I need her)
Said I need her (said I need her)
Beautiful monster (beautiful monster)
But I don't mind (ooh)
No I don't mind
(Said I don't mind I don't I don't mind) no I don't mind
(I don't mind I don't I don't mind) no I don't mind
(I don't mind I don't I don't mind ooh) no I don't mind
The lyrics to Ne-Yo’s song, Beautiful Monster, seem to be about being in love with someone who is both beautiful and dangerous. Ne-Yo sings about how he has never met anyone like her before, describing her like a sharp knife. Although he’s afraid, he’s also turned on by her and is willing to deal with the consequences. The chorus emphasizes this, as he repeats that she’s a “monster, beautiful monster,” but he doesn't mind and needs her.
Throughout the song, Ne-Yo is acknowledging that this person is not good for him, but he’s willing to take the risk anyway. The lyrics “She’s playing with my heart, and she’s playing with my mind” suggest that he’s aware that this relationship could lead to heartbreak, but he can’t resist her. It’s almost as if he’s under her spell, and he can’t escape her allure.
Overall, the song seems to be about loving someone who isn’t good for you, but you still can’t resist them. It’s a classic case of desire outweighing logic, and Ne-Yo’s lyrics capture these feelings perfectly.

All my life
Throughout my entire existence
And the hereafter
Even in the afterlife
I've never seen
I have never encountered
Seen one like you
Someone like you
You're a knife
You are sharp and dangerous
Sharp and deadly
Dangerous and potentially lethal
And it's me
I am the one
That you cut into
Whom you inflict pain upon
But I don't mind
However, I am not bothered by it
In fact I like it
In reality, I find it pleasurable
Though I'm terrified
Despite the fear I feel
I'm turned on but scared of you, oh
I am both aroused and afraid of you
She's a monster
She is a dangerous creature
Beautiful monster
However, she is also beautiful
But I don't mind
But I am not troubled by this
And I need her
In fact, I require her
Said I need her
I explicitly state that I need her
No I don't mind (I don't mind I don't I don't mind)
I am completely okay with it
In her eyes
From her perspective
There's love and fire
There is passion and intensity
And my heart
My emotions
She's burning through
She is consuming them completely
Playing with my heart, mmm
Toying with my emotions
And she's playing with my mind
She is also manipulating my thoughts
(I don't mind I don't I don't mind) And I don't mind
Regardless, I am unbothered
(I don't mind I don't I don't mind) Said I don't mind
I reiterate that I am not bothered
Beautiful monster
Although she is dangerous and beautiful
Said I need her (said I need her)
I assert that I need her
No I don't mind
However, her danger does not trouble me
