Boys Will Be Boys
Paulina Rubio Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Woke up in the morning you were gone, gone, gone
I wonder why I always take you home, home, home
Can't believe you made me wanna smile, smile, smile
Baby, 'cause I still believe that you'll be mine
Pa pa papa pa prrra pa papa
Gonna talk about us all over the town, town, town
Pa pa papa pa prrra pa papa
Never blame you even though you let me down

Boys will be boys
They like to play around
You shot me with your love gun
I'm falling to the ground
Boys will be boys
They like to play around
So tell me how to love one
That's running like a hound
Boys will be boys
Boys will be boys

Boys are always playing silly games, games, games
If I fall, then I'm the only one to blame, blame, blame
Trouble wants to find me all the time, time, time
That's why you're never gonna see me cry, cry, cry
Pa pa papa pa prrra pa papa
Gonna talk about us all over the town, town, town
Pa pa papa pa prrra pa papa
Never blame you even though you let me down

Boys will be boys
They like to play around
You shot me with your love gun
I'm falling to the ground
Boys will be boys
They like to play around
So tell me how to love one
That's running like a hound
Boys will be boys
Boys will be boys

Came to this party looking for fun
I saw this hotter looking like a number one
He was so suave, said "baby, come"
We did that until we saw the morning sun

Boys will be boys
They like to play around
You shot me with your love gun
I'm falling to the ground
Boys will be boys
They like to play around
So tell me how to love one
That's running like a hound
Boys will be boys
They like to play around
You shot me with your love gun
I'm falling to the ground
Boys will be boys
They like to play around
So tell me how to love one
That's running like a hound
Boys will be boys




Boys will be boys
Boys will be boys

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Paulina Rubio's song "Boys Will Be Boys" talks about dealing with the playful and non-committal nature of some men. The song starts with a jarring realization that the person she was with last night is gone in the morning. She wonders why she still takes him home even though he doesn't stay. Despite the disappointment, she still finds reasons to smile about him and holds onto the belief that he will become hers eventually.


The chorus emphasizes the idea that "boys will be boys" and that they like to play around. She sees her failed relationship as a symptom of a larger issue with how men view relationships. However, she takes responsibility for taking the risk and falling in love in the first place. She resolves not to let these experiences upset her and instead to talk about it all over town.


The verse talks about how men tend to play silly games, and if someone gets hurt, it's usually the woman's fault. She also acknowledges that trouble always seems to find her but commits to being strong in the face of heartbreak. Overall, the message of the song seems to be that women shouldn't take the non-committal behavior of men personally and should be willing to move on and talk about their experiences.

I woke up and you left without saying goodbye

I need help figuring out how to love a man who is always on the run

Ya nada es igual, extraño los buenos tiempos de música sin preocupaciones donde lo unico que importaba era disfrutar el tiempo con tus primos 😢
Como desearía poder volver a 2009 - 2015

@alfredo8574

DIGAN LO QUE DIGAN DE PAULINA RUBIO PERO ELLA FUE Y SEGUIRA SIENDO UNA REYNOTA CON GRANDES TEMAS Y EXITOS MEMORABLE COMO ESTE POR EJEMPLO VENGA MI PAU ERES UNICA Y AUTÉNTICA SOLO QUE LOS CAMARADAS NO SABEN DE DE BUENA MUSICA A SEGUIR RUMBEANDO

@orlandosequeira9696

Esta canción fue un éxito en su época en su lanzamiento. Es absurdo que pidan que tenga millones de reproducciones cuando eso es cosa de los ultimos 7 años lo importante en aquellos años era los chart y la radio y ahi brillo. Pau siempre ha dado muy buenos ritmos tan pegadizos que incluso 10 o 15 años despues de su lanzamientos se escuchan frescos y actuales

@kaitokojima576

Mis tiempos fueron los mejores

@maribelr1758

Asi es,amo a pau y a Thalía

@a.b.c.x.y.z.2967

Lamentable que pienses eso... 🥀

@aldahirloredo1931

Era la competencia de shakira
