I Like Boys


I Like Boys

Song by Todrick Hall

Songwriters: Carl Seante Mcgrier / Jean-Yves G. Ducornet / Kofi Owusu / Todrick Dramaul Hall

 

Mama come, come doll, take a seat

There's someone you know that you've got to meet

So brace yourself for the big reveal

He's about my height when he's not in heels

Some boys play basketball

He played house with ratchet dolls

It's not Santa Claus, it's time for applause

It's comin' out the closet

 

Mama, I like boys, I like pecs

Like them arms when they flex

Like that print in them sweats

Tell them girls, "Thank you, next"

I like when they text me sexy pics of 'em

Like them abs when there's six of 'em

Tell them girls I'm sorry

I like boys

 

Mama, boys like me (I like boys who like boys)

Mama (I like boys who like boys)

Work (I like boys who like boys)

Mama (I like boys who like)

Boys like me, yeah (boys like me)

Yeah, they do (boys like me)

Ooh (boys like me)

Motherfuckin' boys like me (bitch)

 

I like when they shake it, shake it

I like when they grind real slow (real slow)

I like when they almost naked (damn)

Tell dad I'm so homo

Lights off, doors shut

Tall, dark, clean-cut

Thick with a bubble butt, yup

 

Mama, I like boys, I like pecs

Like them arms when they flex

Like that print in them sweats

Tell them girls, "Thank you, next"

I like when they text me sexy pics of 'em

Like them abs when there's six of 'em

Tell them girls I'm sorry

I like boys

 

Mama, boys like me (I like boys who like boys)

Mama (I like boys who like boys)

Work (I like boys who like boys)

Mama (I like boys who like)

Boys like me, yeah (boys like me)

They do (boys like me)

Haha (boys like me)

Motherfuckin' boys like me (bitch)

 

Style like they name Harry

Chocolate like Tyrese

I pick him up at Barry's

Crunch, Planet Fitness

Shirt off in the lawn

Sizzlin' like grease

By day his name Gaston

By night I call him Beast

 

Bitch, B to the O to the Y to the S

Boys will be boys and with boys I'm obsessed

Boys in their gym clothes, boys in a dress

And if boys are a crime then I'm under arrest

'Cause I've been boy crazy since the boy scouts

Fuck the closets, let the boys out

Don't be a camel when you are a llama, period

No comma, bring on all the drama

 

Mama, I like boys, I like pecs

Like them arms when they flex

Like that print in them sweats

Tell them girls, "Thank you, next"

I like when they text me sexy pics of 'em

Like them abs when there's six of 'em

Tell them girls I'm sorry

I like boys

 

Mama, boys like me (I like boys who like boys)

Hahaha (I like boys who like boys)

Work (I like boys who like boys)

Mama (yeah) (I like boys who like)

Boys like me (sorry) (boys like me)

Not sorry (boys like me)

(Boys like me)

Motherfuckin' boys like me, bitch



"I Like Boys" is a song by American singer Todrick Hall; he co-produced and co-wrote the song with Jean Yves Ducornet. Hall released the song during Pride 2019. The video opens with Hall coming out to his mother played by Luenell. The video shifts to a desert with Hall surrounded by male dancers and a camel. The song celebrates Hall's sexuality, featuring color, cultural references, and male nudity. 

 

Hall describes "I Like Boys" as campy, and I would agree. I am sure it is not to everyone’s taste, but I suspect a lot of us can identify with what Hall says in the song:

 

I like when they almost naked

Tell dad I'm so homo

Lights off, doors shut

Tall, dark, clean-cut

Thick with a bubble butt, yup

 

Mama, I like boys, I like pecs

Like them arms when they flex

Like that print in them sweats
