Go-go boy

"Go-go boy" is a song by LorD and Master from the album Decimus. The song is about someone falling for a young man who works as a go-go boy in a club. The affection for the boy from the older person is real and grounded in love, yet the boy just wants to party and spend money. The older person, being sung to in this song, is the same person being sung to in the previous song, "Who's that boy?", having been seen around with the go-go boy and breaking up with their former partner. Though no genders are mentioned in the writing of this song, it is assumed that the older person and go-go boy are both male.

Lyrics

He's a go-go boy (go-go boy)
He doesn't want your love
He's a party boy (go-go boy)
He never has enough

Tight skin, beautiful smile
He's the reason you've been here for a while
He's got the body, he's got the moves
He knows how to get you in the mood

And when that song comes on
You're the only one in the room
A flash of eye-contact
Lap it up, feed and consume

He's a go-go boy (go-go boy)
He doesn't want your love
He's a party boy (go-go boy)
He never has enough

And so, the story goes on
You wouldn't recognise him with his clothes on
And then your dream came true
When he smiled straight at you

And then that song came on
You were the only one in the room
A flash of eye-contact
Lap it up, feed and consume

He's a go-go boy (go-go boy)
He doesn't want your love
He's a party boy (go-go boy)
He never has enough

He's a go-go boy (go-go boy)
He doesn't want your love
He's a party boy (go-go boy)
He never has enough
