New Boy in Town” by Elmah unfolds the story of the singer developing a crush on a recently arrived guy in town. Despite her attraction, she sees this encounter as a potential awakening, prompting her to symbolically shield herself with “the blood of Jesus” to resist temptation.
The thrill of this experience captivates Elmah, creating a mutual game of desire between them. She senses that the guy reciprocates her feelings, turning it into a tantalizing yet conflicting dynamic. Elmah battles with her internal conflict, acknowledging the guy’s allure while grappling with self-imposed moral boundaries.
The lyrics suggest a contrast between Elmah’s church upbringing and the perceived rebellious nature of the new boy. The phrase “Dem no fit sight us” implies a desire for secrecy, perhaps due to societal or religious expectations.
Elmah – New boy in town Lyrics
{Verse 1}
See a new boy in town
you try to call me
but you dey move so funny
Gangster cunny ooh
I can’t lie he fine
and he shoe always shine
but me I call calvary
{Chorus}
cover myself with blood of Jesus

I face my front and close my eyes
close my eyes…
and sleep off….
I’m watching my TikTok
I face my front and close my eyes

{Verse 2}
I know you feeling me too
I know you want to consume me
I know you want to spend some cash
All I ask another to give me

{Pre-chorus}
See a new boy in town

Cover myself with blood of Jesus
