Boy Next Door is about forbidden love, lust vs. fidelity, and the visceral pain of attraction
lyrics
The man I love today is a carpenter
He toils, tinkers in his shed
The man I love tonight has dirty hands and a dose of fight
How am I gonna get him out of my head?
How am I gonna get him in my bed?
If her eyes could see through walls
Her jealous fists would turn to claws
And our six-foot fence would grow higher
And our love would expire
Fidelity forbids desire
The boy next door is wanting more
And I want more of him
And the mood feels right
And my thighs are tight
And the boy next door wants more
Yea the boy next door wants more
