“Boyfriend Lyrics”
[Verse 1: Ariana Grande]
I’m a motherfuckin’ train wreck
I don’t wanna be too much
But I don’t wanna miss your touch
And you don’t seem to give a fuck
I don’t wanna keep you waiting
But I do just what I have to do
And I might not be the one for you
But you ain’t allowed to have no boo
[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande]
‘Cause I know we be so complicated
But we be so smitten, it’s crazy
I can’t have what I want, but neither can you
[Chorus: Ariana Grande]
You ain’t my boyfriend (Boyfriend)
And I ain’t your girlfriend (Girlfriend)
But you don’t want me to see nobody else
And I don’t want you to see nobody
But you ain’t my boyfriend (Boyfriend)
And I ain’t your girlfriend (Girlfriend)
But you don’t want me to touch nobody else (Nobody)
Baby, we ain’t gotta tell nobody
[Verse 2: Mikey]
Even though you ain’t mine, I promise the way we fight
Make me honestly feel like we just in love (Love)
‘Cause, baby, when push comes to shove (Shove)
Damn, baby, I’m a train wreck, too (Too)
I lose my mind when it comes to you
I take time with the ones I choose
And I don’t want a smile if it ain’t from you, yeah
[Pre-Chorus: Mikey]
I know we be so complicated
Lovin’ you sometimes drive me crazy
‘Cause I can’t have what I want and neither can you (No, no)
[Chorus: Ariana Grande]
You ain’t my boyfriend (Boyfriend)
And I ain’t your girlfriend (Girlfriend)
But you don’t want me to see nobody else
And I don’t want you to see nobody
But you ain’t my boyfriend (Boyfriend)
And I ain’t your girlfriend (Girlfriend)
But you don’t want me to touch nobody else (Nobody)
Baby, we ain’t gotta tell nobody
[Verse 3: Scootie & Ariana Grande]
I wanna kiss you (Yeah), don’t wanna miss you (Yeah)
But I can’t be with you ’cause I got issues (No)
Yeah, on the surface, seem like it’s easy
Careful with words, but it’s still hard to read me
Stress high when the trust low (Mmm)
Bad vibes, where’d the fun go? (Oh)
Try to open up and love more (Love more)
Try to open up and love more
[Bridge: Scootie, Ariana Grande & Both]
If you were my boyfriend
And you were my girlfriend
I prolly wouldn’t see nobody else
But I can’t guarantee that by myself
[Chorus: Ariana Grande]
You ain’t my boyfriend (Boyfriend, you ain’t my boyfriend)
And I ain’t your girlfriend (Girlfriend, I ain’t your girlfriend)
But you don’t want me to see nobody else (Nobody)
And I don’t want you to see nobody
But you ain’t my boyfriend (Boyfriend, you know you ain’t my boyfriend)
And I ain’t your girlfriend (Girlfriend, yeah, mmm)
But you don’t want me to touch nobody else (Nobody)
Baby, we ain’t gotta tell nobody (Oh yeah)
You ain’t my boyfriend (Boyfriend)
And I ain’t your girlfriend (Girlfriend)
But you don’t want me to see nobody else
And I don’t want you to see nobody
But you ain’t my boyfriend (Boyfriend)
And I ain’t your girlfriend (Girlfriend, yeah)
But you don’t want me to touch nobody else (Nobody)
Baby, we ain’t gotta tell nobody
