Jealous Type Lyrics

[Chorus: Doja Cat]
Boy, let me know if this is careless, I
Could be torn between two roads
That I just can't decide
Which one is leading me to hell or paradise?
Baby, I can't hurt you, sure
But I'm the jealous type
I'm the jealous type

[Verse 1: Doja Cat]
He loves me
But he can't hold this above me
When my eyes are green, I'm ugly
You're vain and hip to rushing
I'm so over-tired
I will not wait in this lane
Never seen you cry
You're mine

[Chorus: Doja Cat]
Boy, let me know if this is careless
I (Let me know)
Could be torn between two roads
That I just can't decide (Just can't decide)
Which one is leading me to hell or paradise?
Baby, I can't hurt you, sure
But I'm the jealous type
I'm the jealous type

[Post-Chorus: Doja Cat]
Oh, I'm jealous baby
Yeah, I'm jealous
Oh, I'm jealous baby
I'm the jealous type
Oh, I'm jealous baby
Yeah, I'm jealous
Oh, I'm jealous baby
I'm the jealous type

[Verse 2: Doja Cat]
I said, You wanna do what now with who?
I don't need a pin-drop or a text tonight
I ain't even coming out with you
You don't wanna show me off
To your ex or your friends tonight
Nigga, you must be on molly
'Cause y'all ain't kick it when we started up
And if she really was a friend like you said she was
I would've been locked in, but I called your bluff, ha
No girl enjoys trying to tough it out for a party boy
Everyone wants you and you love all the noise
You want what you can have, but I made a choice
I'm not your type (Boy, let me know)

[Chorus: Doja Cat]
Boy, let me know if this is careless, I
Could be torn between two roads that
I just can't decide (I can't decide)
Which one is leading me to hell or paradise?
Baby, I can't hurt you, sure
But I'm the jealous type
I'm the jealous type

[Post-Chorus: Doja Cat]
Oh, I'm jealous baby
Yeah, I'm jealous
Oh, I'm jealous baby
I'm the jealous type
Oh, I'm jealous baby
Yeah, I'm jealous
Oh, I'm jealous baby
I'm the jealous type

Jealous Type Song Meaning

You know that feeling when a song just gets you in your gut? That’s what "Jealous Type" does to me. It’s like Doja Cat reached right into my chest and pulled out all those messy, uncomfortable feelings about jealousy and love that I didn’t even know how to say. The mood here is so raw and vulnerable, but also a little defiant—like she’s admitting her flaws but not apologizing for them. It’s that tense, emotional space where love and insecurity collide, and it feels so real it almost hurts.

Right from the chorus, she sets the stage with this heartbreaking honesty: "Could be torn between two roads that I just can't decide." That line hits me every time. It’s not just about choosing between right and wrong—it’s about being stuck between what you feel and what you know is rational. She’s so self-aware, yet so trapped by her emotions. And then she just lays it bare: "But I'm the jealous type." It’s not an excuse; it’s a confession. It’s like she’s saying, "This is me, take it or leave it," and that takes so much courage to admit.

The verses dig even deeper into that tension. When she says, "When my eyes are green, I'm ugly," it’s such a powerful way to describe how jealousy changes you. It doesn’t just make you act out—it makes you feel ugly inside, and she doesn’t shy away from that. And then in the second verse, she’s practically calling out the nonsense in the relationship: "You don't wanna show me off to your ex or your friends tonight." You can feel the frustration building, that sense of not being valued. But what really gets me is the line, "No girl enjoys trying to tough it out for a party boy." It’s like she’s speaking for everyone who’s ever felt like they weren’t enough for someone who craves attention.
