Boys Like You
Who Is Fancy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm in the deep end, cannonball jump
Thinking of your love and my heart beats like a drum
Not feeling guilty, 'cause the water's just right
Oh, it might be wrong, might be the time of your life

So jump on in with me
Let me set you free
I'll make you feel like you're dreaming

Try try try, to follow the rules
I break every one of them with boys like you
My oh my, doing what I always do
Yeah I'm crossing every line to get to boys like you
Boys like you, you, tripping, freaking falling over boys like you

It's getting hot out under that summer sun
I'm not playing games, I'm just a girl having fun
I need to cool down, 'cause I know we're just friends
But one look from you baby then I'm falling back in

What's a girl to do?
I got it mad for you
You make me feel like I'm dreaming

Try try try, to follow the rules
I break every one of them with boys like you
My oh my, doing what I always do
Yeah I'm crossing every line to get to boys like you
Boys like you, you, tripping, freaking falling over boys like you

I get a feeling, looking you in the eye
Know you wanna take a bite of my cherry pie
Get so excited, boy you're making me blush
Let's just take our time now, there ain't no need to rush, no

Why don't you make a move?
Got nothing else to lose
Just make me feel like I'm dreaming

Try try try, to follow the rules
I break every one of them with boys like you
My oh my, doing what I always do
Yeah I'm crossing every line to get to boys like you
Boys like you, you, tripping, freaking falling over boys like you





I got that something I know you can't resist
I'm gonna make you feel it when I blow you that kiss

Overall Meaning

These lyrics describe the singer's attraction to a person that she knows is trouble. She compares her feelings to jumping off the deep end of a pool, knowing that it may be wrong but also thrilling. Despite knowing that she should play by the rules, the singer cannot resist this person's charm, and breaks them all for him. She is fully aware of the consequences of her actions, but she is so drawn to him that she is willing to take risks. She wants nothing more than to be with him, even if it means crossing lines that she shouldn't.


The chorus repeats this idea, emphasizing that the singer is tripping and falling over boys like him. She is struggling to resist him, and even though she knows it might end in heartbreak, she cannot help but be drawn in. The second verse describes how the singer is getting hot under the summer sun, and how she needs to cool down because she knows they are just friends. However, she also knows that one look from him could change everything. She is struggling to maintain her composure, but her attraction is too strong.


Overall, the song portrays the idea of being irresistibly drawn to someone who is no good for you. Despite knowing that it might lead to heartbreak, the singer is willing to take risks for this person, and let herself fall hard.

This song is so underrated, sad that it never charted

@violetmiller9999

Are you shitting me? I'm diehard country but I heard this on DWTS and LOVED it! If a great catchy song like THIS did not chart then there is something seriously wrong with today's music lovers! That is ridiculous. I just presumed it was a HUGE hit.

@blackhole7909

Mia Martinez but it's good song, stupid chart people

@violetmiller9999

Infinitestar Cosplay, no, it's NOT a good song. It is a GREAT song! Very catchy lyrics and tune. I'm 64 and a diehard country fan but I LOVE this song. You are right about the STUPID chart people though. lol
