Elliott Norris, Watch out for the Big Boys [๐Ÿ“ท: Elliott Norris]โ€œHe said he wants me but / I want a Frosty / Or maybe some gummies and steak.โ€ Well, go get you something to eat then, ๐ŸŽ™ Elliott Norris! You do you, boo! If a man is hungry, he should eat, right? Right! The excerpted, sung lines play right into the hands of the bigger guys โ€“ the husky, thick boys and bears! If youโ€™re a twink, well, you better ๐ŸŽต โ€œWatch out for the Big Boysโ€, apparently!

pride heart burstShould โ€œWatch out for the Big Boysโ€ be taken with a grain of salt? Of course, it should! That said, particularly in the LGBTQ community ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ, how many songs do focus on bears and thicker boys? Few and far between.ย  Think about it.ย  The pool of songs is already considerably smaller. Then, do you really think the โ€˜less idealโ€™ body to many is getting the love it deserves? Ha! Elliott Norris, who is a thick boy himself, makes it clear that the big boys deserve to be shouted out.ย  Sure, the lyrics on this brief cut are tongue in cheek, but they are (1) entertaining and (2) pay ode to bigger bodies. Norrisโ€™ flow in the second verse is incredibly agile โ€“ that thick boy spits fast AF! But, the lyrics to beat on ๐ŸŽต โ€œWatch out for the Big Boysโ€ hail from the chorus: โ€œWatch out for the big boys / Some call us the thick boys / Those donโ€™t give a shit boys / Might steal yo chick boys.โ€ย  Enough said!
