[Intro: Ariana Grande]
Hey-ayy
Mm-mm

[Verse 1: Brandy, Brandy & Ariana Grande]
How can it be? You and me
Might be meant to be, can't unsee it
But I don't wanna cause no scene
I'm usually so unproblematic
So independent, tell me why
'Cause the boy is mine, mine

[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande & Monica, Ariana Grande]
Somethin' about him is made for somebody like me
Baby, come over, come over (Over)
And God knows I'm tryin', but there's just no use in denying

[Chorus: Ariana Grande & Brandy, Ariana Grande]
The boy is mine
I can't wait to try him
Le-let's get intertwined
The stars, they alignеd
The boy is mine
Watch me takе my time (Watch me take my time)
I can't believe my mind (Can't believe my mind)
The boy is divine
Boy is mine

[Verse 2: Monica & Ariana Grande]
Please know this ain't what I planned for
Probably wouldn't bet a dime or my life on
There's gotta be a reason why
My girls, they always come through in a sticky situation
Say, "It's fine" (It's fine)
Happens all the time

[Pre-Chorus: Ariana Grande & Monica, Ariana Grande]
Somethin' about him is made for somebody like me
Baby, come over, come over (Over)
And God knows I'm tryin', but there's just no use in denying

[Chorus: Ariana Grande & Brandy, Ariana Grande, Monica]
The boy is mine
I can't wait to try him
Le-let's get intertwined
The stars, they aligned
The boy is mine
Watch me take my time (Watch me take my time)
I can't believe my mind (Can't believe my mind)
The boy is divine
Boy is— (The boy is, oh)

[Bridge: Brandy, Monica & Ariana Grande]
And I know that this is meant to be and I
I'll show you accountability and empathy and sympathy
How could you still be so disillusioned after all of this time time?
I told you once before, I'll tell you once more, the boy is still mine, mine
Yeah, said he wanna make plans with me but I don't * with affairs, you see, I know
But listen what they say to me if it ain't broke then it can't be broken
Well, he better sort out his business 'cause I'll never be nobody's mistress
(I know, I know, I know)
But I can't ignore my heart
[Chorus: Ariana Grande, Monica & Brandy]
The boy is mine (Mine)
I can't wait to try him (Oh)
Le-let's get intertwined
The stars, they aligned
The boy is mine (The boy is mine)
Watch me take my time (Time)
I can't believe my mind
The boy is divine
Boy is mine
Mine
I can't wait to try him (Oh)
Le-let's get intertwined
The stars, they aligned (The stars)
The boy is mine
Watch me take my time
I can't believe my mind (Woah)
The boy is divine
The boy is mine
