  • I was busy thinking 'bout boys
    Boys, boys
    I was busy dreaming 'bout boys
    Boys, boys (XCX)
    Head is spinning thinking 'bout boys

    I need that bad boy to do me right on a Friday
    And I need that good one to wake me up on a Sunday
    That one from work can come over on Monday night
    I want 'em all
    I want 'em all
    And when they finally leave me I'm all alone, but
    I'm looking down and my girls are blowing my phone up
    Them twenty questions, they asking me where I'm at
    Didn't hit 'em back

    I'm sorry that I missed your party
    I wish I had a better excuse like
    "I had to trash the hotel lobby"

    But I was busy thinking 'bout boys
    Boys, boys
    I was busy dreaming 'bout boys
    Boys, boys
    Head is spinning thinking 'bout boys

    In every city I got one with different ringtones
    Flying from L.A. all the way to Puerto Rico
    My girls are calling me asking me where I'm at
    Didn't hit 'em back

    I'm sorry that I missed your party
    I wish I had a better excuse like
    I can't even lie, you got me

    I was busy thinking 'bout boys
    Boys, boys
    I was busy dreaming 'bout boys
    Boys, boys
    Head is spinning thinking 'bout boys

    Don't be mad, don't be mad at me (no, no, no, no)
    Darling, I can't stop it
    Even if I wanted
    Don't be mad, don't be mad at me (no, no, no, no)
    Missed what you were saying
    I was miles away, yeah
    Don't be mad, don't be mad, not like I had a choice

    I was busy thinking 'bout boys
    Boys, boys
    I was busy dreaming 'bout boys
    Boys, boys

    I was busy thinking 'bout boys (boys)
    Boys (boys), boys
    I was busy dreaming 'bout boys
    Boys (oh, baby), boys (yeah)
