BEYONCE - “IF I WERE A BOY” LYRICS
If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I’d roll outta bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I’d kick it with who I wated
And I’d never get confronted for it.
Cause they’d stick up for me.
[Chorus]
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I’d be a better man.
I’d listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he’s taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a boy
I could turn off my phone
Tell evveryone it’s broken
So they’d think that I was sleepin’ alone
I’d put myself first
And make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she’d be faithful
Waitin’ for me to come home (to come home)
(Chorus)
It’s a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think I’d forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
(Chorus)
But you’re just a boy
You don’t understand
Yeah you don’t understand
How it feels to love a girl someday
You wish you were a better man
You don’t listen to her
You don’t care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you’ve taken her for granted
And everything you have got destroyed
But you’re just a boy

I love it !
I actually like it..
am a real beyonce fan, but i am not feeling this song. hope she comes out with better tracks.
NAY!
i love it….i’m glad beyonce is finally back! song sounds so raw and full of emotion. i think us guys are going to get it together real soon thanks to beyonce:)
b o r i n g .. like all beyonces songs lately
didn’t ciara already do this? ho-hum….beyonce come on…
YAY OFCOURSE! THE QUEEN IS BACK!
#1 EUROPE FAN
http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=HpWHml42_Rg
hmmm sounds familiar
Let me guess she changed a word and a got a 3rd of the writing credits, right?
Ciara did this already
Ciara’s song is called LIKE A BOY…and they are nothing similar!
i like it..it’s different sound for beyonce but it sounds great…
I like…I am more a rock or rock/pop kind of girl but this I would definitely buy from itunes!
Hated It!
i agree with sassiegirl the meaning of the title is the same but the songs are very different , and don’t forget rihana who picked “take a bow” from madonna!!!!! i luv u beeeee !!you’re my idol
its not great. but not bad either. it dont think its very special to be a nr 1 hit.
THIS IS BS! This isn’t an original song by Beyonce this is a rip off from the Ciara song. Hello it came out like 1.5yrs ago, it’s about this EXACTLY.
WTH?
@ yieww- If it sounds like that, then I say NAY! NAY! NAY! But I’m pretty sure Beyonce is gonna make it sound alot better then that. geez.

That version sucks!
puta
No wonder she recorded 90 songs for this album, most of them were probably just songs handed to her to record, all this crap about her being a writer and producer is just marketing.
uhm yeah…. ciara wannabe???
btw: ciara is much better than beyonce!
She must have met the wrong boys!
..omg i like this song..its like shes singing bout my boyfriend…:((
Boring song……
All the haters are talking now but as soon as the song gets airplay. Watch them secretly start listening to the song. Hipocrits!!!
The song is amazing!
oh wow! i love it.
this song sucks. I heard it on the radio and I had to turn on another song to drown it out.
oy
she looks like a boy, as a matter of fact…
or take off her wig……
BC Jean sings the song…her version is better in my opinion…i wish she was more well known and she was releasing it to the world
she didnt write that song!!its wriiten by BC jean, and her version is prettier
I WERE A BOY BELONGS TO” BC JEAN” BEYONCE IS JUST A COPYCAT,NOW SINGLE LADIES THATS EXACTLY BEYONCE PRODUCT AND YOU CAN HEAR ITS RUBBISH.DONT BUY HER ALBUM,SAVE YOUR MONEY FOR MORE IMPORTANT THINGS COZ SHE WONT PAY FOR YOUR PARENTS MORTGAGE OR FUEL FOR YOUR CAR.
well i’m sure you used to be a boy.
Haters everywhere u go
Beyonce did her thing on both songs go support the girl buy her album Nov 18
And haters continue to hate it is your job continue to blog and make posts in threads abt her, because without haters u are nothing, she is doing something write when she got ppl she don’t know hating on her so much, so thank you and she is laughing straight to the bank, while u raising ur blood pressure talking abt her. Laughs on you.
Is it me or does this ballad has the same melody as “what if god was one of us?” I’ll give her kudos for penning lyrics on her past because that dude does want her back but this track is overall wack. If the melody was different, it would have been aight.
the demo is better than beyonce
I like it. I think you need to hear it a few times, but it’s catchy. Sad song.
great song
THIS IS GREAT SONG FOR BEE AND IT GOES WITH HER WOMAN EMPOWERMENT SONGS THAT SHE INCORPORATES ON ALL HER ALBUMS. IT’S DIFFERENT BUT VERY TIMELY JUST LIKE IRREPLACEABLE…
Co`mon now, its a great track, beyonce might be too much. But this is definetly 1 great track. So all ya`ll who aint feeling its ok, dont buy it. Those who like it then buy it, I think thats what beyonce wants us to know about her this time, its not about number 1, the gliz, hollywood…… shes human, just a person, like each and everyone of us. So lets just enjoy.
Im sure Ciara and Rihanna probably enjoyin the track as well
Haven’t heard it, but the lyrics really remind me of Ciara’s “Like A Boy”.
I really like this song is amazing great ballad!!!
oh nooooo…please beyonce dont do this………….i know she tries 2 come out differently than others but she had 2 come with a hit song…not with something like this…..im kinda dissapointed and im like one of her biggest fans!..=[ fuckkk! itkinda sucks!
i hate everything but the words — and it doesn’t even sound like beyonce, wtf?!
To bad the original version by B.C Jean is way better then Beyonce’s. Way to take credit for a song that isn’t yours. Hope the original credit will go to the person who actually wrote the song
THESE LYRICS ARE JACKED THE **** UP!!!! THEY BARELY ARE RITE, BEYONCE DONT EVEN SAY HALF OF THE STUFF ON THERE!!! THEY NEED TO LISTEN A LIL BETTA!
i love the song……….. she has really changed her style and this is something that will have to grow on me but its wonderful and beyonce is the best chick in the game
I love it cause i love her and she’s awsome!!!!
Okay she is seriously copying off of Ciara.
ya’ll ******* stop complaining, beyonce da ****
beyonce new song is hot!!!yall some haters on her…for all you haters you need to go to you tube in check out her song just for you!! called “cant take no more”
y did she do BC Jean like dat. I don’t even think the girl has been out that long and she might not be that popular but Gosh come on. Does she think she can run over less popular ppl and take their songs and run wit it? SMH
AAAARRRGH I FREAKINH LOVE BEYONCE ABD HER SONGS. THERE AMAZING!!!!
omg yalllll so effin retarded ciara and beyonce have 2 different meanings
…
this song is about she’ll know how it feels to be disrespected by a boy or bein treated bad
and ciara is like sayin “how the fucc you’ll like it if i fucced yo homeboy!?” or juss cheat on her
listen to the song
This song is amazing.
It has nothing to do with Ciara’s song…
The meaning is so much deeper…
Than some hip hop song…
With a great beat…
Amazing Beyonce!
-Danielle-
sexayy
ii ♥ it
its so effin COOLL
(:
Ugh. the lyrics aren’t the same but she is DEFINETLY copying Ciara’s concept of ‘like a boy’
Just like how she tried to belly dance in her old videos then Shakira (a legit belly dancer) came around and she resorted to some strange African dance.
i usually don’t like beyonce but this song is alright and I dont think its the same as Ciara’s “like a boy”, i feel they have different meanings and totally different beats…
i love this song. beyonce did it again like she always does.
original sonq came from this chic http://www.myspace.com/bcjean
You guys are all gay! just an FYI
You GUYS that are commenting this is stupid! just an FYI
i think this is a really nice song….and if none of you ppl notice that artist learn from one another no one is original they get things from other artist….and Anastacia ciara can barely sing…. it sound someone like a country song i like the new idea!
ummmm i dnt kno wut sum of yall r tlkn bout this song bangs for real
i love it so all yall haters call ya self tryna clown her music n half of yall prolly cant even sing. but wut ever this this si my sh*t so get it bey i love #1 fan ya already kno
o n one mor e thng not tryna call nobody out but Liana, Anastacia and anne she aint no ciara wonna be dat bi*ch caint even sing and she dnt try to clown her about her writing credit it dnt matter how much of the damn song she wrote she claim her credit if she wants to n these aint even no where close to the lyrics n ciara’ song like a boy so get it right
such a good song. she always sings from the soul. shes amazing. better than ANY other female artist. no one realizes that she writes songs about realistic and interesting things she doesnt follow trends she always does her own thing and others follow. if she wanted she could have a million materialistic songs that are just like all the other songs on the radio and maybe she could sell more albums but shes not into that. beyonce is the best forever and always!! love beyonce she can hit every note and beautifully. GO BEE!!
sounds like she’s copying ciara
WTH?
tbh id like to see any of you lot do a better song lol
how is this a ciara copy when ciaras is LIKE A BOY and this is IF I WERE A BOY?
i think you need to get to know your tunes LOOOOOOL
I love Beyonce to death but her ballads are a bit boring but full of emotion! If I didn’t read the lyrics to this song I wouldn’t have liked it, but with lyrics I get a better understanding of what she’s saying and I was moved by it. I agree she did copy Ciara. That’s pretty obvious. It’s okay to copy eachother’s idea though to see who’s is better.
Well I hope her dance hits are better. I really loved Beautiful Nightmare wow wow wow. I can’t wait to watch the video for “if i were a boy” Beyonce give it to us baby! As someone said, keep singing to my soul! lmao
ummm… ” If I were a boy”?? is this what her carrerr has come to!?
you people are STUPID!!!!! just because she didn’t wrote half the song she doesn’t deserve a credit!!! **** YOU PEOPLE!!!!, RIHANNA DON”T WRITE her songs but give her credits!!! people are really stupid, they condemn those talented people and give props to those ******* who doesn’t even know how to write a song!!! CIAR BEtter than beyonce? that’s stupid! she can’t even sing, she looked like a ******* at fashion rocks singing JUST STAND UP with the A-listers, she should be replaced by A-keys and rihanna should have been replaced by xtina!
i llove it,really good song…i love ya b!
i am absoloutly obsessed with this song!
from the moment i heard it i havent stoped listening to it =]
haha well done! and so are the lyrivs ;-)

k great… love this song =)
This is nothing like Ciara’s song “Like A Boy” << that song is about acting like a boy. & This song is about loving like a boy. Totally different you Gronksssssssssssssssssssssss.
‘Beyonce is hot
but Tila Tequila is hotter
i;m going to marry her (A)

The song is hot, yeah ciara did something like this but if people listen to both songs they are different in away but some lyrics are the same. this song is more emotional and cc is not. Big Up B good song.
This is probably the first song by Beyonce I like. Actually I love it, I loved it the first time I heard it yesterday.
You haters are just not getting it.
It’s emotional and raw…quite brilliant.
It’ll be a MASSIVE hit.
love the song….
laana– you’re probably disgusting looking in person.. so i wouldnt go talking about a superstar whos stunning.. i love my girl beyonce n i think this song is hot- doesnt even sound similar to ciara’s.
i think the song’s really really good. the people who are hatin on it are people who are just jealous cause they’re not pretty, they’re probably fat, and they’ve never had a real releationship with real problems. :]
i love this song it makes me wuna sit down and think.. I’m addicted to this song :/
[keep doing ur thangg b]
I DON’T MEAN NO HARM BUT WHOEVER HOME GURL OR HOME BOY WAS TALKIN ABOUT HOW PPL GON START LIKIN IT WHENEVER IT COMES ON THE RADIO…. PLZ DO US ALL A FAVOR AND SPEAK 4 URSELF PLZ….. BEYONCE DIS SONG CAN B BETTER I MEAN SOUNDS GREAT BUT COME OPN B I EXPECTED DAR SASHA 2 COME OUT ON YOU….. MAYBE YOU SUD DO A DUET WIT MY GURL JENNIFER HUDSON CUZ SHE DOING THE THING RITE NOW…. WHAT’S WRONG (GO AWAY) FT. T-PAIN NOW DATS FIRE JENNIFER!!!!!
um yea ******* sumbody else might sing this song but the queen B sing it better stop the hating ddum ass *******..
I love it!
This song has nothing to do with Ciara’s song.
It’s just the same theme, but the lyrics and music are entirely different.
It’s not unusual to have the same theme on different songs.
BTW, I love Like A Boy too.
i lovee thiss songg .
i think everyyone can relatee too it
(:
</3
firsttt of all. ciara’s sonq is like a boy. nd ciara talks bout beinq how mostt quyss are now a dayss.. all ********. beyonce is talkinq bout sumthin totallyy different. qreatt sonq. i love itt.. do ur thinq qirll
nd who cares if someone sanq this sonq b4 beyonce. dont most sinqers come out wid re-makes ?
Beyonce didn’t write this song. It’s someone else’s, she just did a cover. The original is better.
i only got 2 hear this song 1 time, but i really liked it & i can’t wait til i can hear it more…
I love the song!!! hot Track another #1 hit for Bee
AWESOME!!!!! She does it again!! Amazing! People come on! Ciara has got nothing on Beyonce. I get goosebumps all over my body when i’m listening to this song.
Dis song is poppin……… everything she says in dis song describes my boyfriend! They hurt their girlfriends cause they don’t kno how it feels and after they noticed that what they really wanted and needed is gone, they want to come back and its 2 late!! I hope my boyfriend learns a lesson from this song!
love this song with all my heart yea it is kind like the slow version of like a boy by ciara but its a lil deeper thn tht song i like both but id listen to this song if i was sad n then if i was mad listen to ciaras like a boy theyre both great songs but ciara cannot sing like beyonce 4 all u haters who dont like it cuz beyonce “jocked’ off ciaras song
beyonce haters!! the song is a bit slow but I loved it… AND CIARA has nothing on Beyonce.
First of all, Beyonce is a beautiful woman and sure as hell doesn’t look like a boy. Whatever female said that is sittin at home right now wishin’ God made her look better than what she does now. STOP HATIN’!! 2nd of all i like the song and I think Beyonce has a beautiful voice that goes with it. But hey everyone has their own opinions. To everyone who is hatin’ kick rocks!! lol. oh and by the way Ciara doesn’t have **** on B. Keep dreamin’!!
I think it is a good sond she did ok on the singing but its word for word by a rocker named BC Jean come Beyonce you re-word the damn song but other then that it was nice
LOVE!!!!!1
I love dis song….I’m feelin da exact way she’s discribing in da song. All yal r hatin…n by da way da song has a totally different message n feeling to it…so all yal tryna knock beyonce- GO **** OFF OR SUMTHIN! Keep duin yo thang b n I’m also lykin dat otha single of urs “single ladies”
yall are so stupid ciara’s song like a boy is no where as deep as this song watch the video understand it and stop hating on beyonce because ciara is no where close to as talanted as beyonce is so yeah smh just shut up its a beautiful song
I so luvz dat song… don’t hate on B… I aint a feiing fan of herz ßΠŁ I like her song… not 2 mention SINGLE LADIES dat ŠＨÎ₮ iz poppiin both dem are…. u go gurl….
i luv this song!!! All you haters need to stand back and stop being jealous.She is not a jock! Gosh!!! Ciara we all love u but bey rocked this concept!!!
Don’t forget bey’s albumn comes out november 18th
the song isnt a good one, but the lyrics are the TRUTH!
I think everyone is such haters…this song sounds and is not like Ciara’s song…In Ciara’s video she was dancing around and looking like Bow Wow…Do you actually think that she wrote that song…no…wtf does someone have to do to be succesful in this industry…kiss the fans A*%!!!
i d0nt really listen to her.
like i n0t im n0t her fan at all!
buh w0000w this s0ng its AWESOME!!!

mmmm seems like she wants to be like ciara
ciara - like a boy
I love this song! its full of emotion and its REAL! her best song ever!
i LOVE this.
yes it is a different sound and everything, but its that uniquness that makes it magical.
i love the lyrics so true, i wanna play this to my ex. lol.
xo
OK LET ME CLEAR THIS UP FOR EVERY COMMENT ..
1) THIS AINT NOTHIN LIKE CIARA’S SONG.. NOTHING!! LYRICS ARE DIFFERENT AND THEY SAYIN DIFFERENT SH*T.. U GET ME??
OTHER THING.. CIARA AINT BETTER THAN BEYONCE DON’T EVEN TRY THAT.. U BUGGIN.. U PPL DON’T NOE R&B 4 NOTHIN IF U THINK THAT.. CIARA AINT SH*T COMPARED TO BEYONCE
N THIS SONG IS POPPIN ..
ANYONE WHO THINKS DIFFERENT U DEAD WRONG..
HATTTTTTTTTTERZZZZZZZZZZZZ
N THIS SONG AINT BORING..YA ASS IS BORING.. BEYONCE IS DA SH*T.. SHE BIN #1 ALL HER LIFE DON’T COME AT HER TRYNA BRING HER DOWN
SHE AINT WON ALL THOSE AWARDS FOR NO REASON!!
N PLUS SHE MARRIED 2 DA HOTTEST RAPPER IN DA GAME SO I CAN SEE WHY YA HATIN
HAHAHAHA
i definitely love “if i were a boy”… my last boy acted like that so i can def. relate. first time i heard it, i was like “yesss!”. the lyrics spoke to me. as far as the other one, its alright, i only heard a piece of it. its probably going to be a big hit in the club.
shes still great though, i think this next album will be a hit.
it was… a no for me. but i still luv her up =]
I absolutley ” LOVE” this song…and as a singer who is always looking for a song that I can “feel ” this one is absolutley awesome…to hear this one just rings so true in so many aspects and it is put together beautifully in my eyes…it is a song that I will sing/listen to again…again…again and again!!!!! I also am not a giddy teenager…(No offence to you young spiritful ones) I am 44 years young… and this girl rocks at all she does! Good on you Beyonce!
#36 u are so correct
I love it Beyonce way to go
Video is awesome,
Don’t listen to the player haters your number one.
ohk! beyonce is the QUEEN and yea Rihanna did her thing this but now it’s B’s turn! I love this song cuz ii know so many can relate and she put her heart in this song! Ohk Ciara had like a boy but it’s not touchin this song and by the way Beyonce can sing so much better then Ciara… she can only dance. So let’s stop hatin on B and allow her to grace her way back to the top!
This song is amazing,
if youve been hurt by a boy you can relate to it really well!
ive played it over and over again.
da song its iight but its alil 2 sow for my liking. I like da meanng behind it. if it was a faster it be hot!!! Other than dat it good.
Omg i love this song!!! I can relate to this so well. When I first heard this song I was like OMG did she sing this song just for me, it fits perfectcly to my similar situation … I think that it’s a new sound for Beyonce but I think that she worked with it well. Although Ciara did a song titled “like a boy” i think that Beyonce’s “if i were a boy” is totally different, there is more emotion involved and you can hear the emotion in her singing… I think it’s an awesome song… Im expecting her new album to be awesome.

I LOVE THIS SONG :) AND HER :)
Thing is Beyonce has been in the game long enough for girls, upcoming artist, and current artist to mark what she has succeed within her time as an artist, fashion designer, and performer. Beyonce is not remaking a song, (clearly) She is giving a more mature understanding crowd a better understanding lyrically of what Ciara performed. Ciara showed us a story, Beyonce is telling us from a different perspective. Take time to think before you speak. Talk about the one who doesn’t notice you, because you know their better. Exactly what a lot of you have done. Cheerio! wink*just smile

Ciara writes most of her song and the songs has good meaning but everyone is not going to like and that is there opinion so deal with it eveyone don’t have to like beyonce some people don’t care for her jsut deal with it and stop responding to everything someone writes you have to much free time. Clearly
First off ciara did “Like a Boy” and they are two different tracks listen carefully to both instead of just trying to sya beyonce is stealing from ciara just becuase the song titles both have the word boy in them.Yu ppl need to get a life and stop hatin od Beyonce she is working hard 4 hers so leave her be.nd if yu dnt like her new single there are millions off ppl who will.TRUST!!!!!!!!!
OH MY GOSH WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE
THIS SONG IS THE BOMB!!!!!
THIS IS LIKE THE BEST SONG I HEARD FROM BEYONCE!
ALL YOU GUYS WHO HATE IT RE OF COURSE JUST HATERS!
JUST CUZ YOU DONT HAVE A BEAUTIFUL VOICE..
HAHA KEEP HATIN BEYONCE IS BEAUTIFUL WITH A BEAUTIFUL VOICE THIS SONG IS AWESOME PEOPLE ARE JUST HIPICRITS..
BUT WHATEVER THIS SONG IS THE *ISH FO SHO
i think this song iz so0o0o true…
beyonce singz sum deep songz ..and the only ppl that cant understand her songs r da one hu aint bein tru 2 dem slvz …
NOt H8n on boiz…
but yall r juz boiz… and uze dnt understand the pain u put us gurlz thru …and for the gurlz that cant apprciate diz song …u dont apprciate urselfn datz y.
LISTEN TO THE LYRICS
i’m not a big Beyonce fan but this song rocks! yes Ciara did something similar but so what, men are trifling.
I love it!it totally relates 2 my situation
i love this song………if i was a boy…………..
to laana ur either gay r ur a girl who cant get a man. no one on this earth thinks beyonce looks like a man. u may not like her which is fine but dont outright lie about somt=ething like that. we all can’t b beautiful n ur gonna have to live with urself lol sorry
IF I WAS A BOY ID DO HER LOL
IF I WERE A BOY ID DO HER
IF I WERE A BOI ID HER LOL JK THIS SONG IS OK BUT WHY WOULD SOME ONE WANT TO BE A BOI WHO WOULD WANT TO CARRY A DING DONG AROUND AWAH DISCUSTING NE WAYZ BEYONCE NEEDS A ****……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
n to everyone on here saying that the song belongs to BC Jean n that beyonce is a copycat, u all really need to do research on how the music industry works. they allow a few people to record the song. then it boils down to whos more popular (beyonce) , who would pay more for the song (beyonce) n who would make more of a profit off of it to get the writers name out there. (again beyonce) so sorry BC Jean fans she’s just not known…get ova it.
ID DO HER TOO
SHUT THE HELL UP
this is my new favorite song
Wow. What a bunch of idiots. This song is bad ass. Stop being a hater. And she is way Better than ciara
Umm..for all yu haterz out there shut the **** up! Beyonce is a great artist there is no play off of ciara’s weak ass! Besides ciara is the one like a boy oh wait she used 2 be one! Levae beyonce alone. Stay up girl!
BEyonce is the F***ING **** we all know it. Has she ever disapointed her fans i dont think so.. Love her long time. Cant wait to hear more..
Ok I was just reading all of the comments.. I take offense to anyone that compares Ciara to Beyonce lets think about that for just a few seconds………………………………… Ok Beyonce has been around for the past forever and Ciara is nobody.
i love this song!!!its great maybe one of the best beyonce has ever made!!!i think every woman can relate!!!
I LOOOOOVE THIS FRICKEN SONG BEYONCE IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
Umm yea ciaras song is diff from beyonces the same concept diff. Senarios, all yall are haters I love it 2, and why would beyonce wannabe be ciara, beyonce has everything ciara has and 50x more so yea ciaras the ****, but beyonce has way better vocals, and there’s no comparison ciara is hip hop & r&b beyonce is pop & r&b, and beyonce does produce & write her own songs, u can only name a few songs beyonce has redone and put on her albums, everybody else cowrites her songs so stop hatin, nobody can touch beyonce.. ****** losers, Go BEE!! Ur the ****..

it’s a good song.
Ciara didnt’ do this song, two different songs, with different meanings. You Rock Beyonce
First off B.C Jean sounds horrible, For all you people who are saying Beyonce stoled ” If I were a boy” please do your research. Beyonce is talented and well established she doesn’t need to steal anyone songs, how would she look to the public? That would ruin her career. Beyonce sung this songm with such beauty and grace. You could hear the pain in her voice. B.C Jean sounds like she is being strangled. Beyonce you Rock
Classss songgg !! :L
xx
you would love it , if you were ever in this situation before ! i love it so true
to all the people that say ciara did this song already.
beyonce >>>>>>>>>>>>>>ciara.
the truth right there.
I love this song i think most women can relate.. this kinda reminds me of my ex anyways i dnt think it sounds or is anything like ciara’s like a boy stop hating ppl
everybody needs to shut the **** up! this **** is HOT just like everything else that Beyonce does. watch all the people talking about her will be the main one’s singing the song. the girl is a guiness! she is the best thing out…and Ciara and Beyonce’s versions of the songs are TOTALLY DIFFERENT!!!
i like it, i mean its different from the other stuff she s put out, but its good
Beyonce is the greatest and always will be!!!!!! This song has NOTHING to do with “like a boy “from Ciara. Beyonce does not have to COPY any artist. Trust that –all u hatas. What differnce does it make if beyonce nephew wrote the song? Do you hatas not know that all the artist do NOT write their lyrics? I normally do not post –but this is some bull.
For that THING that said Be looks like a BOY, you just mad bcuz you WILL neva get the time of day BE gets. ( yeah this board is all about BEYONCE nobody else…get it????)
Beyonce, do your thang gurl….keep makin that money. Smile at these hatas, they are like energy drinks.

I love this song! You all can talk your hate about the song but it’s not like Ciara! Beyonce has style, skill and sassy! I’m happy to see her back! So don’t be jealous, it’s not like your getting paid to leave comments.
i lovee it…<3(Y)!!

It is nothing like Ciara’s song you dipsticks, have you not listened to them?! They are nothing alike. Personally I think this song is great :D Much better version than BC Jean and if BC Jean didn’t release it and permission was given to Beyonce and her record label to release it then it isn’t stealing. I think all you haters need to shut up and get your facts right.
**** ALL YALL WHO DONT LIKE BEYONCE YALL JUST MAD CAUSE U CANT BE LIKE
YALL NEED TO STOP HATIN ON BEYONCE
ya’ll betta stop hatin it hooot qeen b rocks..n about the ciara thing… plzzzz
all her songs are just men hating crap. what guy is gonna ‘treat her right’ when she treats us like ****.
LISTEN ; WHY THE **** IS YOU ALL HATING? BE GROWN ABOUT THE SITUATION . ITS A ******* SONG FOR CRYING OUT LOUD . YOUR JUST MAD UR NOT GIFTED LIKE HER . REAL TLK !
i love this song…..its so true
You guys are like, retarded.
This song is a masterpeice.
I don’t see how ANYONE can not like this song.
So what? Ciara wrote a song about being a dude.
Almost every song is about the same thing, girls/guys or money.
I think this song is great
finally some rnb dat aint got lyrics bout shakin ass nd makin money
this song actually means something
gud on her i think..she’s got an amazing voice..nd id know cuz ive seen her in concert!
so all the effin tossa’s payen her out…get a lyf! id like to see yu do better!

i like this song… its similar to ciera’s yes but the lyrics are more deep in this one i guess… like alot of girls can relate to guys takin them for granted and how they dont appriciate wat they had until it was gone :(
i appreciate the song!…i luv it
I LOV3 IT GIRL DONT MIND DO3S PLAY HAT3RZ . HI HAT3RZ !!!!!!
I LOVE THIS SONG
I dont give a **** what anyone says cause dis song is good and if yu dont realize dats den f*** yu then cause yall dont kno music den
keep doin ur thing beyonce
Luv yu
dont even hate on dis girl
cause yu dnt even kno her so
its d best song ever
here ya go princess fran
its a great song, heavy arrangement and nice vocals like always! I like it
at first i didn’t think i was goin to like it jus because of the title being so simular to ciara’s song. its pretty good suprisingly though. ciara’s song stated a point and kept it movin (somethin u could dance 2, which in turns people dnt catch the overall meaning). beyonce slowed it down an made sure u got her point very clearly.
WAY 2 GO B!!!
this song isnt bad for her voice. Its different. this song is real though some people may not like it because they think she stole this from Ciara not true Like a boy is completly different read the lyrics!!!!!!!! over all not bad and I took this song @ heart it did blow me away
Boys and girls have different wants and needs. Neither is wrong, just different. So GROW UP and stop throwing rocks at boys…Sooner or later you will want one to love you, but they won’t love you, since they’ve had stones thrown at them by girls for far too long.
ii LOVE this sOnq!
iiTsz sOO TRUUE!!
whOeva dOnnt likee iiT….
qOtta be cusz they KNO iTsz tRuee! Nnd either they’Re sinLe Or they’Re MAN shOwsz NO lOve!!
I love it! Not only because Beyonce makes it great, but it’s really relatable and heartfelt. I don’t think you would like the song if you never felt the emotions she’s trying to convey in this song. I always liked the concept of Ciara’s “Like A Boy” but I didn’t like the sound of it. They sound totally different, so she’s not copying her, it’s a common topic. There are millions of songs about heartbreak, finding new love… so what, there can only be ONE song about how much different it would be if we acted like boys?
This is to all the haters especially Anastacia…1st. Ciara has nothing on Beyonce.. 2nd. their songs sound nothing alike.. && 3rd. Ciara cant sing, she has nice songs but be real beside rihanna, Beyonce is the best in the game…This song is a HIT…

When I first heard this song i cryed. I really applied to my situation with my ex boyfriend. I’m not a huge beyonce fan, but this song speaks to me.
i love this song.i wish this is my ringtone.
i LOVE THiS SONG ! and yeah okay, its a little like ciara but it gets the point across BOY’S ARE complete asses ! i love this songggggg !! kudos beyonce =]
hey hey :):):);););) lolz watz up
i dont mind this song aiii lolz
but yerr itzz okayy lolz ‘
aiight laterz skaterz
dont b haterz on beyonce she is just 2 gud
melzy xx
nice song…! i love it..
Ya’ll haters need to shut the **** up..this song slaps hard in the bay like yeee. We love miss beyonce, and if ya’ll don’t like it then don’t listen to it you squarebears with no hair because you probably use nair.
I think it’s a nice song, but it;s not like every single guy is like this, it’s opposite is a song about how girls are just all whores and they will trick you for money.
Not the way to go about changing things.
piss off haters, ur just jealous yous dont have talent like B does
i love this song ;]
VIVAAA Beyonce
“like it” now thats and under statement. I LOVE IT BIG TIME, my girl B rocks!
gr8 song and i should no im verry picky ,its cool that beyonce has come back
Is 2 cool. love this song
This song is so real and what if it sounds like ciaras they both are bad ass so people stop hatin on the girl her music is good ….
i think everybody who said beyonce sucked SUCKS!!!!
I NEED SOME PERSONS 2 STOP HATEING, EVEN IF CIERA HAS A SONG SIMILAR 2 BEE’S SONG, IT AINT THE SAME PERSON SINGING SO, BEE THAT SONG IS AMAZING AND IT DOES HAVE A MESSAGE. U BRING THE BEST IN U THANK GOD. JEALOUSLY IS A VIRUS, GET WELL PEOPLE ,CAUSE SHE EH GOING ANYWHERE IN A HURRY
JEALOUSLY IS A VIRUS, GET WELL PEOPLE ,CAUSE SHE EH GOING ANYWHERE IN A HURRY
this song is good

Well beyonce you did copy off ciara but i dint care what non a say that song is ok but the end raw i kno the hold dance
I love this song. & First and foremost for all you ppl that think she is takin ciara song stop HATIN!! jus becuz you cant sing. These are 2 very different songs. i agree with sassiegirl!
I love it…it makes me cry
BUT HEY DNT B A FOOL CIARA SONG IS DIFFERENT FR BEYONCE SO WAT SAME TITLE ALOT LOOK AT TAKE A BOW FR RIHANNA SOMEONE ELSE HAS DAT SAME NAME SO WHU CARES DA SONGS ARE DIFFERENT GET OVA IT N STOP BEING HATERZ MAN DAMN!!

this is as awesome song. i cried the first time i heard it. i dont know anything about it being a ripoff of the ciara song, but this song is very powerful to me and her voice comes across so pure. incredible song! i can totally relate to it.
I think there is to many haters, just wanna say that i love the song and that yes it talks about the same subject of ciara song like a boy, but the lyric its totally different , people its not just about the bip! put attention to the lyric first and then make your opinion!
This one is lik reely good!
It describes a lot of guys at
My skool…lol
I wuld actually put thz on my
Page……
Keep up the hard wrk.

i love this song!

the lyrics are a beast
best slow song ive heard for a while! x
well good
love it
(y)
omg you lots r so perthetic!!! id love to hear some of u sing!!!
grow up u morons!!!
Sooo love this song…yea Ciara did something similar but if ur a female that has had issues with a man both Beyonce’s song and Ciara’s song can help u cope…stop hatin on my girl B…she is the bomb…and can’t none of u guys see her…so give it up and go cop her new album!!
I like the song it’s good. I do think it’s dumb that she did that bc ciara did something similar but i still like it and her video was interesting. Oh and for the haters ya are gonna start singing so shut up and let her be….whether ciara did it or not they are both getting paid and ur not so shut up you bum lollll!!!!!…lata
i think this song is completely different from
ciara song…
iloveit!
all yall who said beyonce copied ciara shut up at least dis betta stop hatin get a life stupid yes i said it whatcha gon do bout .do ya thang beyonce
So wat if she has a song that “seems” similar to ciara’s. They aint they samee. People gotta stop hatnn and give ha credit for al tha werk she puttin out. she aint onli doin i fah haself but ha fanss like me! Soo plzz. Take a breeathhe and let ha rockk. She’s amazing.and forever will be
MAN3 i l0V3 diS SONG ..
it G0ttA ALOt OF MEANING
T00 it GUD SO B3YONC3!!! :)
YAll N33d tA St0P hATiN
I LOVE IT…!!! 1st off its NOTHIN like ciara’s song…shows how much yinz no! Plus Beyonce bets ciara anyday anyway..! Bet all u haters will be sining it n a week anyhow.!!
to concerned citizen:for you to say stop throwing rocks at boys shows just how ignorant you are because if the right boy comes along and he’s NOT like the one beyonce is talking about in the song it won’t matter what “rocks” have been thrown at him by other girls. he will stop at nothing to get to you.
for the rest of you talking to hear yourselves talk, lets get real. how many albums has she sold? more than you. how many #1 hits has she had? more than you. clearly she knows what she’s doing. for all of you saying she copied ciara…please. beyonce took this song and gave it a deeper meaning than ciara’s. and you don’t truly understand what she’s talking about until you have gone through it. at least she’s making you think. or maybe that’s why you don’t like it so much; you’re not smart enough to understand the meaning.
keep up the good work beyonce. im looking forward to the new album :]
I like it! Watch the video. It all comes together.
the song is wow, kip up jay-be. how comes your hips sometimes shrinks? am just curious.
wow ganda na man it sounds parang true love the text
wow ganda na man it sounds parang true love the text
wow gandaa na man sounds like parang true….
I LOVE BEYONCE’ AND THIS SONG.
love it. big beyonce fan and everything she touches is number 1
omg! i love it
its amazing
and i really understand what shes saying :)
yall some haters..
diis song bang….
**** da haters
I love it….i
this song has so great words…..and everythng that she sings is thrue:D
i LOVE it!!!!!!
yo ! i love this song, and beyonce, ******* stop hating
I like this song but i dont love it like single ladies
You guys need to get a LIFE! Ylike or not she’s living her life and will still do what she does best. So quit hatting and just let her be! She did great and could care less about your comments. Worry about yourselves and just concentrate on your lives and quit being so judgemental..it’s not getting you anywhere in life!
ok everyone lets get some perspective. she is not a ciara wanna be, she didnt copy the song from her, and no she doesnt look like a boy.
this song is awesome. you’re all insane.
ciara’s song has a completely different title, and the songs are different.
kthnxbye.
I actually like it. Its not ur typical beyonce song. The first time I heard it I immediately thought Ciara like a boy but even though its the same concept they r very different songs. I love the way beyonces voice sounds on this song (well she never sounds bad) she’s singing this song with so much feeling and im really happy she went with a different sound for her first single cuz as much of a fan u can be a lot of her songs start to sound the same.
I can’t wait for the album!
I LOVE IT,YOURE THE BEST SINGER IN THE WORLD,I LOVE YOU SOO MUCH,YOURE THE BEST,FROM LEDA KOSOVO
wow! i love it. its amazing beyonce sings it better than bc jean
all u hipocrits sayin beyonce is not a gud singer need 2 go on av ur ears testing coz she is amazin
love u bee!
xxxxx u go girl xxxxxxx
i love this song i have it on my bebo
i don’t understand how people can’t love it i love beyonce
she is amazing x
This is a new low in pop music. When I heard the song introduced on the radio and I heard the title I thought “this is going to be bad.” nothing could have prepared me for the cringe-worthy lyrics, the pretentious overwrought arrangement and Beyonce’s breathless over-emotive delivery in the verses and her tinny screaming through the choruses.
I think the song is poppin’…it reminds me of my situation
people are stupid this song is really good and everyone just says its bad because there jealous of her
this song is awesome!!!!!
I like this song and its way better then “LIKE A BOY”. Ciara wish her song was as good as this one
What ever ******* this song is the ****
but this song is way better then
ciara it is so talking about the truth
this is what the guys should so
get advise from this song
Whatever ******* this song is the ****
this is way better then ciara’s song
and guys you so need to get advise
from this song
OMG ii LoVe THiS SoNG!!!!!! KeeP iiT uP B
lick me out!
i didnt like it the first time i heard it because it was sooo different but now i love it . itis the best song ever.
i love this song so much,
it makes me cry the lyrics are proper amazing.
love it larr x
wow….just bad and kinda weird
I love this song so much.
I do wish that some girls would stop assuming all boys are like this, though, because we are not all like that at all.
But this song is just fantastic.
i love u beyonce 4 this song u r soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo right
diz song iz so true….
Hey! Eveb though ciara’s “Like a Boy” reLates to this song..I stiLl actuaLly Like it…And I don’t even Like beyonCe..she’s too in2 herseLf
I wish my songs were better.
i love this song! Its nothing like ciara…i like them both but, beyonce sings better and ciara dances better. They’re both talented women with flaws and all…but if u don’t like this song…something is wrong with u! BEYONCE, DO YOUR THANG MAMI! :)
I freakin love it!!!!!! One of the best songs I’ve heard in a long long time!!!
this is a fab song and i luv the whole video its defonitly suits it i luv it
i like it… i dont understand the complaints..
who cares if supposedly ciara did something like this before…they arent the same lyrics and the song is nice… be interested in the music itself not whether its marketing or whatnot…
i think this is a good song… ill be honest i didn’t like it till i seen the video now i love it.. yes ciara has like a boy but that is different then beyonce’s if i were a boy… all you people are just haters and you all listened to that song at least once and guess what beyonce got paid for everyone of you who listened to her song!!
arghh! i h8 writin on these stoopid things bt it just gets on my nerves completely when retarded ppl start having fits over nothin!!! beyonce is a gd singer whether any1 likes the song or not. ciara simliar sorta song, NOT THE SAME THO… how stooopid!!! ppl that just say nasty **** about other ppl are just jealous. grow up and write about somethin important! if you’ve got anythin nasty 2 say no1 wants 2 hear it! ¬_¬
IT’S SASHA FIERCE BABY
i love this song it such a true song anyone who dosnt love it is dumb
absolutely love it!!!!!!!!!!!!It so true..if my ex could of been me for the past 6yrs..maybe he wouldnt of hurt me so bad..
It’s just a girl singing about her expectations. But she delivers it good, I like it. :)
you guys are all haters. this song is the ****. better then some ciara type ****. you just don’t relate because you don’t know how it feels. so stop talking stuff about beyonce. hate on yourself
B needs to get her own ****! it bad nuff she copied Ci when she did Upgrade U wen she was “j-z” and herself just like Ciara did in L.A.B. now she got a song like her. GET YA OWN **** BEYONCE CIARA BETTER
This song is pure gold for beyonce
Very good, And the lyrics are so true !
Beyonce is great x x
Yeah ciara did it but….. Beyonce still shitted on her and did it much better.. Ha yal some haters. The song wasn’t meant to be exciting…. it’s not a dancin party song…. Mybe u should try listenin to the words again………….. DUMBASSES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

all you haters go o far this song aint nothing the same as like a boy by ciara far brahsss this song is slick so stop being losers and going on because she has put her emotions in to words!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beatiful song..
and isn’t similiar ciara..
Congratulations Beyonce. U did it!

laana plz stop hatin cuz u know u probably bald headed n-e way beyonce is beautiful and this song is nothing like “like a boy” so yeiww you can get on the hush mouth. like a boy was kinda up beat and mad!!! this is the jam!!

i love beyonce she has made an amazing song.
i love it.
ROCK ON BEYONCE
i love this song thanks who ever posted it and dont hate abby cuz this song is the best so f@c$ %*!
You pple are crazy, this song is absolutely incredible!!!! Its nothing at all like Ciara’s fast put down track “Like a boy”!! this song is deep and full of meaning from a ballad standpoint. I am not one of her fans but as soon as I heard the lyrics, I fell in love with this hit!…and she really delivers a deeply emotional plea for men to WAKE the **** up!!!!
first off u can not compare ciara and beyonce theyre totally different… and there songs are different as well…..i love it beyonce~!!!
Yall r not gettin a cut of Ciara’s $. I agree this song is wats up stop riden’ ciara get off her jock…..Shes new 2 dis B is true 2 dis. Not 2 down C cause she has a few good records but B is doing ger thang. News Flash 99% of 2days song r old songs(nelly&kelly I luv u 4 ex.). who eva wrote d’s mis-spelled wated and evveryone
some of the lyrics is wrong!
but i love the song
i like the song,it sounds great,nothing’s change about beyonce’s greatness.good job beyonce,keep your career more irresistable.
This song is so LIVE, if you don’t like it don’t write it. So Ciara song has nothing to do with this song. I like it beyonce and forget the wanna be fans. Haters

I really really love it, it’s a good song, she is the best and her song it is cmpletely diferent of ciara’s song, it’s better
sum says Dey dun lyk it..
Sum says diz song sucks
But rili if u can rili relate to dis song..
It’s a gud song
It talks about us “girls”
how do we rili feel deep insyd..
IM a BIg FAN of beyonce i love it and i love that neww song she just made its awesome!!!
You guys aren’t thinking correctly. don’t you think that guys have it made? I do! They can sleep with whoever they want whenever they want and dont have to worry about getting pregnant. thats what this song is about. And its great! They never worry about listening to girls and actually trying to win her love. Guys r insensitive and they suk!
i love this song :$
i like it but reminds me of too much shitt
THIS IS A COOL SONG………
BUT ALL YOU GUYS HU SAE
H8N ON THIS SONGG
U GUYS R MUTHA FUKAZ
AND TONE DEAF
i actually kinda like this song. she has a gorgeous voice, so pure and beautiful. i know, cuz i’m a singer, and all of you peopel clearly don’t know a trained voice when you hear one. rihanna sucks, she can’t sing,and beyonce has a gorgeous voice, but rihanna is more popular, screw that…. <3 beyonce. amazing voice, truly amazing.
=]]
i love it!!!!
if i were a boy……
this is the best song ever! it is so TRUE! After being mentally abused for two years and not knowing what he was doing, i def. understand this song. every word is touching & i loveeee it!!
i fink thiss song izz beltar…. what a wkd tune…………………………..LURV YARZ AL……………..
OHH YERSH
This is definitely not a mix of Ciara’s song.. If any knew wtf they were talking about… Ciara was singing about being a guy in a way for us females to understand… This song is towards the guy with, to realize what they put us through.. So get off her swag haters.. This song is the ****..
Bleeurghh, it’s yuck.
<.<
I love this song! All you people hatin’ on her need to get a life. You don’t like the song….SO WHAT! Everyone is entitled to their opinion but don’t come on here being hateful! GROW UP! She is a successful singer, songwriter, actress, etc and until you have all of those titles under your belt shut up about her!
yah beyonce is bak!!! and i love her new song if i were a b
its mad
mad
I LOVE THIS SONG
it’s her best song !! everything she says it’s so true ..the lyrics are so great! hard feelings out there….
Whole ****** time beyonce n ciara r two different people n yall juss hatin. Dont make me bring out da big guns.
OMG this song is so addicting and i love it i love singing it its an all around really good song. Keep them coming beyonce. you rock.
I like this song. =)
Its so true to
I think the song is beautiful and she sounds wonderful singing it.
OMG this song is poppin i love it!!!!!!
i absolutly love this song
(:
but there are a few typos.
i like the song… it give off a message that people, especially guys… should respect what we girls feel and what we think.
the song has a good message for all the guys that think girls are just toys: girls are the be respected and taken cared of…
this song gives off a message to all the guys who thinks girls are nothing important: girls are to be respected and treated with care. guys don’t know how hard it is to be girls and to be hurt as a girl
I would usually be more into indie rock these days but I absolutely love this song! That’s the type I of song i cant get enough of, the raw, emotion filled songs with great meaningful lyrics - which i must say are so true!
Beyonce is amazing!
i loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee thissss songggggggggg maa favoriteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee<3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333
all u losers! how is this song bad? it roks and really touched me! here’s somin for all whoever says it’s crap ” like u can do better!”
ha x
I really love this song. This is all the truth about men…
People chill out.
You couldn’t sing like her if you tried.
So stfu and go get a life thanks.
are..you people serious……this song …is…real….words are to true…it’s what people feel and go through in life not many people are..making true music anymore…..i’m not a big fan of beyonce…but..i won’t front…this song..in GREAT….she got my respect for this…and this song is nothing like ciara’s…….the lyrics are different the meaning might be on the same page like most songs …but…the whole song is different from ciara’s it doesn’t take commonsense to realise that………
Love it!<3<3<3
i love this songggg!
why yall hatin yall know this song good and for da ones dat dont know this is nothing like caira,like a boy i like it and beyonce didn’t make songs in a long time except if you like it you (should put a ring on it) or somthing like that any way i give her,her props she earned it!

i ♥ beyonce…
tha song its sweet…. its actually better than ciara’s… i mean to say i love ciara and i hate beyonce… but face d fact mudda ****** haterz… tha song rocks… be gone loosers
tru trinidadian princess
I like this song. Most artist put songs out there that people can relate to. She did a good job, alot of girls can relate to feeling this way one time or another.
(Liana) How can you say its marketing? You have no idea. Your ridiculous comment should’ve been left to yourself.
Even if some songs were handed to her. Someone wrote them, she did a good job putting a good writers music out there.

I think Beyonce has hit the nail on its head this time. I hope these boys change to be better men. They are so immature and they will try to justified their low level of morality.
i totally dig this song! I am so glad that she made this song,so guys can catch a real wake up, beacuse you only realise what you have when you loose it, then its too late….

Not bad but not that memorable either. I’ve heard better from Beyoncé. Just hope the next one is more funky. I would love a ballad too I must admit.
I love Beyonce, she has always been my #1 fan. Love the songs too but she does shout a little too much sometimes!

omg. beyonce actually kinda does look like a boy on her album cover
but hey- she rox… shes one of the few who is very talented and can ACTUALLY sing
