Boys Will Be Boys Lyrics

Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Boys will be boys (hey)
Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Boys will be boys

You've got something
So incredible in my eyes
And my heart (and my heart)
It starts pumpin' (pumpin')
Whenever you're around
The whole world's upside down baby
But I try to get closer
And you always push me away
You tell me it's much too soon
But I just can't help it
I always gotta make a play

Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Boys will be boys (hey hey)
Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Baby, boys will be boys

All my senses
Go right into overdrive
Oh my defenses
I'm never gonna hope
I always gotta lose control
And I hear you say
That you think that we should wait
And I can't hold on anymore
My body's callin' for you
So please don't hesitate

Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Boys will be boys (you oughta know by now baby)
Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh (oh baby)
Boys will be boys
Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh (oh oh)
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Boys will be boys (you oughta know by now baby)
Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Boys will be boys (I gotta do what I gotta do baby)
Go go go...

And I hear you say
That you think that we should wait
And I can't hold on anymore
My body's callin' for you
So please don't hesitate
My body's callin' for you
So please don't hesitate

Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Boys will be be boys (boys will be boys)
Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Boys will be boys (you oughta know by now baby)
Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh (oh oh yeah)
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Boys will be boys (you know I gotta do what I gotta do baby)
Oh ooh oh ooh oh oh
Oh ooh oh ooh oh
Baby, boys will be boys (boys will be boys)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

The love the Backstreet Boys to death but I am deeply disturbed by this song. Is it just me or does it sound like the themesong to rape?

in the beginning, hes obviously jacking off to some little boys. he says "oooooooooo, boys will be boys", he probably likes them so much he wants to masturbate to there little wang-chungs. well, i love the boys, and they should really pik me up some time. im little, i a boy, and im naughty, they would love me. anyway, i love N' Sync 2, there awesome, if only we could all come over and have a huge slumber party, i would wip out my cock while they were sleeping, and cock slap them all, maybe i'd get a little tea bagging action goin on 2 like zakky reynolds.
