Lyrics: Albums > Never Say Never > The Boy Is Mine

The Boy Is Mine (duet with Monica)

The boy is mine
The boy is mine
The boy is mine
The boy is mine, the boy is mine

SPOKEN:
[Brandy]
Excuse me can I please talk to you for a minute?
[Monica]
Uh uh, sure you know, you look kinda familiar
[Brandy]
Yeah, you do too but umm
I just wanted to know do you know somebody named
You, you know his name
[Monica]
Oh yeah definitely I know his name
[Brandy]
I just wanted to let you know that he’s mine
[Monica]
Uh no no, he’s mine

CHORUS:
You need to give it up
Had about enough
It’s not hard to see
The boy is mine
I’m sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine

[Brandy]
I think it’s time we got this straight
Let’s sit and talk face to face
There is no way you could mistake
Him for your man, are you insane?

[Monica]
You see I know that you may be
Just a bit jealous of me
But you’re blind if you can’t see
That his love is all in me

[Brandy]
You see I tried to hesitate
I didn’t wanna say what he told me
He said without me, he couldn’t make
It trough the day, ain’t that a shame

[Monica]
Well, maybe you misunderstood
Cuz I can’t see how he could
Wanna change something that’s so good
All my love was all he took

REPEAT CHORUS

[Monica]
Must you do the things you do
Keep on acting like a fool
You need to know it’s me not you
And if you didn’t know it, girl it’s true

[Brandy]
I think that you should realize
And try to understand why
He is a part of my life
I know it’s killin’ you inside

[Monica]
You can say what you wanna say
What we have you can’t take
From the truth, you can’t escape
I can tell the real from the fake

[Brandy]
When will you get the picture?
You’re the past, I’m the future
Get away, it’s my time to shine
If you didn’t know, the boy is mine

REPEAT CHORUS (2x)

You can’t destroy this love I found
Your silly games I won’t allow
the boy is mine without a doubt
You might as well throw in the towel
What makes you think that he wants you?
When I’m the one that brought him to
This special place is in my heart
He was my love right from the start

REPEAT CHORUS (2x)

[Monica]
The boy is mine
Not yours
[Brandy]
But mine
[Monica]
Not yours
[Brandy]
But mine
[Monica]
Not yours
[Brandy]
But mine

I’m sorry that you
Seem to be confused
He belongs to me
The boy is mine
