Boys
Sabrina° Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I said I wanted Thin Mints and you said you knew a guy
You showed up with a boom box and stars in your eyes
Who knew cuddling on trampolines could be so reckless
We bonded over Black Eyed Peas and complicated exes

Fell so deeply into it
It was all so innocent

Now I'm a homewrecker, I'm a slut
I got death threats filling up semi-trucks
Tell me who I am, guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked
I'm a hot topic on your tongue
I'm a rebound gettin' 'round stealin' from the young
Tell me who I am, guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked a boy

I'm not catastrophizing
Everything's derailing
Was only tryna hold you close
While your heart was failing
It's not internet illusions just
Two kids going through it
You said I'm too late to be your first love
But I'll always be your favorite

Now I'm a homewrecker, I'm a slut
I got death threats filling up semi-trucks
Tell me who I am, guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked
I'm a hot topic on your tongue
I'm a rebound gettin' 'round stealin' from the young
Tell me who I am, guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked a boy

All because I liked a boy
Fell so deeply into it
It was all so innocent
Dating boys with exes
No, I wouldn't recommend it

I'm a homewrecker, I'm a slut
I got death threats filling up semi-trucks
Tell me who I am, guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked a boy
And all of this for what?
When everything went down, we'd already broken up
Please, tell me who I am, guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked a boy

Ah (a boy), ah (a boy)
All because I liked a boy

Overall Meaning

The song "Boys" by Sabrina° is an upbeat dance-pop track that celebrates the excitement of summertime love and the promise of youthful adventure. The song is essentially a call to arms for young people to let loose and have fun in the sun, to embrace the thrill of new experiences and the joy of romantic connections. The lyrics are full of catchy repetitions, urging the listener to get in the groove and join the party.

The chorus is particularly memorable, with its relentless repetition of the word "boys" over and over again, creating a sense of playful flirtatiousness and youthful exuberance. The verses similarly encourage the listener to let their inhibitions go and embrace the moment, to "set your body free" and "have some fun tonight".

At its core, "Boys" is a celebration of the joys of being young and carefree, of embracing the pleasures of the here and now and living life to the fullest. It is a reminder that there is no time like the present to experience all the world has to offer, and that love and adventure are waiting for those who are willing to grab hold and never let go.

I never got married. Twenty years have passed and I called her. Her father answered the phone .Then she picked up the phone.
She never got married. She kept saying , " What happened ? What happened?" She was confused. I was talking some nonsense.
She asked me to give her mobile phone number and promised to call me back. I gave it to her, she didn't call back. Probably shouldn't have called. She is not in social networks. Maybe she is already married and has children ? She wasn't the most beautiful. She was the best.
P.S.
Юлия Друнина
"Не встречайтесь с первою любовью"

Не встречайтесь с первою любовью,
Пусть она останется такой —
Острым счастьем, или острой болью,
Или песней, смолкшей за рекой.

Не тянитесь к прошлому, не стоит —
Все иным покажется сейчас…
Пусть хотя бы самое святое
Неизменным остается в нас.
