You're just a boy, baby, what did I expect?

Ain't got no fuckin' respect? Oh, no, yeah

Met you at a party last week

Caught you staring at me

You were tryna keep it low key

I thought it was kinda sweet

Then I got to know you, saw the games you were playing

'Cause the things you were doin' didn't match, oh, no, no oh, no

Don't know why you did it, got me in a situation

Guess you're good at hiding ulterior motivation, oh, no, oh, no

And baby, you're disposable

I would rather be alone

Than have to deal with you one more time, one more time

And I know that you think you know

What I'm thinking, but you don't

Think I'm trippin' 'bout you, I'm fine

You're just a boy, baby, what did I expect?

Ain't got no fuckin' respect, oh, no, yeah

Trust me, boy, I'm the best you'll ever get

But you said you're through with it, oh, no, yeah

I hate to be the one to tell you, but

You're just another one of them dudes, yeah

Walking 'round like you're so cool, think

Everybody cares what you do

Well let me tell you something, I don't wanna sound bitchy

I can guarantee when I'm gone that you'll miss me, oh no, oh no

I thought you were different but I've never been so wrong

Got you figured out, don't know why it took me so long, oh no, oh no

And baby, you're disposable

I would rather be alone

Than have to deal with you one more time, one more time

And I know that you think you know

What I'm thinking, but you don't

Think I'm trippin' 'bout you, I'm fine

You're just a boy, baby, what did I expect?

Ain't got no fuckin' respect, oh, no, yeah

Trust me, boy, I'm the best you'll ever get

But you said you're through with it, oh, no, yeah

You're just a boy, you're just a boy

You're just a boy, caught you starin' at me

You're just a boy, you were tryna keep it low key

You're just a boy, I thought it was kinda sweet

You're just a boy, I need a man though, need a man though

You're just a boy, baby, what did I expect?

Think I know fuckin' respect, oh, no, yeah

(Think I know respect, oh)

Trust me boy, I'm the best you'll ever get

(I'm the best you'll ever get)

But you said you're through with it, oh, no, yeah

Did I?

You're just a boy, you're just a boy (a boy)

You're just a boy, you're just a boy

You're just a boy, you wake up, no respect

You're just a boy, but what did I expect?
