Because I Liked a Boy

I said I wanted Thin Mints
And you said you knew a guy
You showed up with a boombox
And stars in your eyes

Who knew cuddling on trampolines
Could be so reckless?
We bonded over Black Eyed Peas
And complicated exes

Fell so deeply into it
It was all so innocent

Now I'm a homewrecker, I'm a slut
I got death threats filling up semi trucks
Tell me who I am
Guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked—

I'm a hot topic on your tongue
I'm a rebound gettin' round
Stealin' from the young
Tell me who I am
Guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked a boy

(Ooh, ooh)

I'm not catastrophizing
Everything's derailing
Was only tryna hold you close
While your heart was failing

It's not internet illusion
Just two kids going through it
You said I'm too late to be your first love
But I'll always be your favorite

Now I'm a homewrecker, I'm a slut
I got death threats filling up semi trucks
Tell me who I am
Guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked—

I'm a hot topic on your tongue
I'm a rebound gettin' round
Stealin' from the young
Tell me who I am
Guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked a boy

(Ah, ah, ah)
All because I liked a boy

Fell so deeply into it
It was all so innocent
Dating boys with exes
No, I wouldn't recommend it

I'm a homewrecker, I'm a slut
I got death threats filling up semi trucks
Tell me who I am
Guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked a boy

And all of this for what?
When everything went down
We'd already broken up
Please, tell me who I am
Guess I don't have a choice
All because I liked a boy

(Ah, ah) a boy
(Ah, ah) a boy
(Ah, ah)
All because I liked a boy
