A BOY IS A GUN Songtext
von Tyler, the Creator

Don′t, don't shoot me down (yeah)
Don′t, don't shoot me down (okay)
Don't, don′t shoot me down

You so motherfuckin′ dangerous
You so motherfuckin' dangerous
You got me by my neck (a boy is a gun)
That′s why these other niggas lame to us
'Cause all these other niggas lame as fuck
We show ′em no respect

When the time's right, yeah
When the time′s right, baby
When the time's right (a boy is a gun)
(Turn me up a little bit)
Don't, don′t shoot me down


Take your hoodie off, why you hide your face from me?
Make your fuckin′ mind up, I am sick of waitin' patiently
How come you′re the best to me? I know you're the worst for me
Boy, you′re sweet as sugar, diabetic to the first degree
My spidey senses, got me on the fences
Whole squad in Ginza, travel bag by Balenci'
Big dog hittin′ big wheelies on the six speed
Don't, don't shoot me down

You so motherfuckin′ dangerous
You so motherfuckin′ dangerous
You got me by my neck (a boy is a gun)
That's why these other niggas lame to us
′Cause all these other niggas lame as fuck
They show 'em no respect

When the time′s right (yeah)
When the time's right, baby, when the time′s right
(A boy is a gun)
(Look)
Don't, don't shoot me down

Oh, you′re passive-aggressive? Oh, you′re fakin' your mad?
Oh, you wanna go home? Cool, you better call you a cab
I ain′t takin' you home, yeah, I′m brushin' you off
′Cause this parka is Comme, you're my favorite garçon
Don't leave, stay right here, yeah, I want you right near
You invited me to breakfast, why the fuck your ex here?
Well, let′s see if you ′round a God around this time next year


Don't, don′t shoot me down
Don't, don′t shoot me down (fucked up)
Don't, don′t shoot me down
Don't, don't shoot me down

You so motherfuckin′ dangerous
You so motherfuckin′ dangerous
You got me by my neck (a boy is a gun)
That's why I start to think it′s lame as fuck
(Well, I'm here for you)

When the time′s right (yeah)
When the time's right, baby
When the time′s right (a boy is a gun)
Don't, don't shoot me down

You′re a gun ′cause I like you on my side at all times
You keep me safe (don't, don′t shoot me down)
Wait, wait, dependin' on, you know (all the time)
You could be dangerous to me (time, time)
Or anyone else

Look, they be bringin′ us up
Yeah, like now and again
Give a fuck what they talkin' ′bout, I see you as a ten
I'ma leave it at that, I'ma leave us as friends
′Cause the irony is I don′t wanna see you again

Stay the fuck away from me
Stay the fuck away from me
Stay the fuck away from me
I ain't gon′ repeat myself, but stay the fuck away from me

(You started with a mere hello)
(A boy is a gun)
Don't, don′t shoot me down
(You started with a mere hello)
(A boy is a gun)
