Boys Wanna Be Her
Steve Aoki Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You've got them all, by the balls
Causin' waterfalls
Stone walls
Bar brawls
Common stalls that cause 'em all
To you they crawl, body sprawl
Smokin' Pall Malls
Close call, stand tall
Doll, you make them feel so small
And they love it!

The boys wanna be her (the boys)
The girls wanna be her (the girls)
The boys wanna be her (the boys)
The girls wanna be her (the girls)
The boys wanna be her (the boys)
The girls wanna be her (the girls)
The boys wanna be her (the boys)

I wanna be her
Yes I do

The way you rock, don't stop (or lone star)
Girl, you got the chops
Flip flop
She bop
Self-taught
You lick so hot
Are you conceived
Kids receive
Crawling up the sleeve
Parents bleed
Can't conceive
That indeed we'll never leave

And we love it!

The boys wanna be her (the boys)
The girls wanna be her (the girls)
The boys wanna be her (the boys)
The girls wanna be her (the girls)
The boys wanna be her (the boys)
The girls wanna be her (the girls)
The boys wanna be her (the boys)

I wanna be her
So do you

Overall Meaning

"Boys Wanna Be Her" by Steve Aoki is a song about a woman who exudes confidence and power, and how she makes men and women alike want to be like her. In the first verse, Aoki describes how this woman has men "by the balls," causing "waterfalls," "stone walls," "bar brawls," and "common stalls." Despite this behavior, men still swarm to her and make themselves small in her presence. The chorus repeats the lines "The boys wanna be her, the girls wanna be her," emphasizing that everyone wants to emulate this woman's commanding presence.


The second verse continues to describe the woman's allure, saying that she is "self-taught" and "lick so hot." The questions "are you conceived, kids receive?" suggest that this woman may be an unorthodox role model. Parents may be worried that their children are idolizing a woman with questionable behavior or values, as she causes them to bleed and cannot be left behind. The final repetition of the chorus includes calls for listeners to "listen up" and scatters voices, emphasizing the song's message of empowerment and individuality.
