Excuse me, can I please talk to you for a minute 

Uh huh, sure, you know you look kinda familiar 

Yeah, you do too but, umm, 
I just wanted to know do you know 
Somebody named you, 
You know his name. 

Oh, yeah definitely I know his name. 

I just wanted to let you know he's mine. 

Huh, no no, he's mine. 

You need to give it up. 
Had about enough. 
It's not hard to see, 
The boy is mine. 

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? 

See I know that you may be 
Just a bit jealous of me. 
Cause' you're blind if you can't see 
That his love is all in me. 

See I tried to hesitate, 
I didn't want to say what he told me. 
He said without me 
He couldn't make it through the day, 
Ain't that a shame. 

And maybe you misunderstood, 
Plus I can't see how he could 
Want to take his time and that's all good. 
All of my love was all it took 

The boy is mine.
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. 

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. 

I think that you should realize, 
And try to understand why 
He is a part of my life 
I know it's killing you inside. 

You can say what you want to say. 
What we have you can't take. 
From the truth you can't escape. 
I can tell the real from the fake. 

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. 

You can't destroy this love I've 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 
The special place that's in my heart,
He was my love right from the start 
 
He belongs to me

The boy is mine, not yours

But mine! 

Not yours! 

But mine! 

Not yours! 

But mine! 

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