In "hey boyyy" by Slayyyter, a crush turns into restless obsession as she wonders whether he notices her at all. She calls her feelings a funny little secret, but the nervousness and constant reading between every line suggest fear that wanting him this much looks like stalking. The imagined domestic scenes, old movies, makeup, breakfast, twirling in her bedroom, soften that anxiety into a wish for closeness without pressure. The repeated invitation to come closer or come over carries the hope that he might already be thinking of her too.
hey boyyy Lyrics by Slayyyter
Hey, boy
Hey, boy
Hey, boy
Hey, boy
Hey
Oh, am I dumb for falling?
I don’t know him well, but I’m crawling
Does he see it under?
Or can he read me under?
I see him more, and I can’t stop blushing
I’m too old to feel, more than nothing
Does he see it under?
Or can he read me under? Oh, oh
Need him so bad, I’m freaking
I don’t understand what he’s thinking
When he see it under
Why can’t he read me under?
Hey, boy, I got a funny little secret
I get so nervous when you talk to me
If you wanna sit closer, then come closer, oh
Hey, boy, when you’re alone, do you think of me? (Hey, boy, ah)
I read between every line you leave (Hey, boy, ah)
If you wanna come over, come over, oh, oh
I obsess, won’t confess to him
The way I feel feels like stalking
When I keep it under
Oh yeah, I keep it under
You saw me creeping, yeah, you saw me on the side
Wish I could tie you up and take you for a ride
Hey, boy, I’ve got a funny little secret (Hey, boy, ah)
I get so nervous when you talk to me (Hey, boy, ah)
If you wanna sit closer, then come closer, oh (Hey, boy, ah)
Hey, boy, when you’re alone, do you think of me? (Hey, boy, ah)
I read between every line you leave (Hey, boy, ah)
If you wanna come over, come over, oh, oh
We could put an old movie on
You can watch me do my makeup
Breakfast when we wake up
Play you all my favorite songs
Twirl around my bedroom
‘Til you have to go home
You don’t have to go home
‘Til you have to go home
Mm, you don’t have to
Hey, boy, when you’re alone, do you think of me? (Hey, boy, ah)
I read between every line you leave (Hey, boy, ah)
If you wanna come over, come over, oh, oh
Hey, boy, I’ve got a funny little secret (Hey, boy, ah)
I get so nervous when you talk to me (Hey, boy, ah)
If you wanna sit closer, then come closer, oh (Hey, boy, ah)
Hey, boy, when you’re alone, do you think of me? (Hey, boy, ah)
I read between every line you leave (Hey, boy, ah)
If you wanna come over, come over, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Ooh-ooh, ooh
Hey, boy, hey, oh
Hey, boy, ha, ah
Oh-oh, hey, boy
Hey, boy
Oh, oh, hey, boy
Hey, boy, hey, boy
Hey, boy, hey, boy
