It was at that particular moment that she wished she was a boy. FYI, Gad co-wrote this ballad with Jean.Īccording to Jean, while at the restaurant, she wanted to order a pizza but instantly decided against the idea because she was on a diet. And the second inspiration came when she and record producer Toby Gad took a trip to a pizza restaurant in New York City. The first was the collapse of a romantic relationship she was in. Song’s InspirationĪccording to the song’s co-writer (singer-songwriter BC Jean), the song was inspired by two primary things. So according to her, if she had the opportunity to be a boy, she’d make it her objective to be a better partner to her female lover. Here, she strongly criticizes men for their inability to love and treat their female partners properly. And why? Because this is where the “meat” of the song really is located. But our interest isn’t in the verses per say.
