[Chorus]
I want a boyfriend
But I just keep hitting dead ends
Try to take a shortcut, but I get cut again and again
I want a boyfriend
Tell me, are there any good ones left?
I keep finding wrong ones, but I want love again and again
I want a boyfriend
[Verse 1]
I been up all night
Pretty restlessly
Think I might know why (Ah)
I’ve been doing just fine
But baby, that don’t mean
That I’m feeling anti you and me
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s a difference between a want and a need
Some nights, I just want more than me
I know that there’s a fine line between
It’s not what I need, but (Yeah)
[Chorus]
I want a boyfriend
But I just keep hitting dead ends
Try to take a shortcut, but I get cut again and again (Yeah)

[Post-Chorus]
I want a boyfriend

But that won’t get the job done (Uh-uh)

Every time they lie (Uh, ooh-hoo)
I get a little anti you and me
[Pre-Chorus]
There’s a difference between a want and a need
Some nights, I just want more than me
I know that there’s a fine line between
It’s not what I need, but (Ooh-hoo)
[Chorus]
I want a boyfriend
But I just keep hitting dead ends
Try to take a shortcut, but I get cut again and again (Yeah, ooh)
I want a boyfriend (Uh-huh)
Tell me, are there any good ones left?
I keep finding wrong ones, but I want love again and again

I want a boyfriend (Ah, ayy, yeah)
