When you say that your 'milkshake brings all the boys to the yard'...

I think I get part of it but I wonder sometimes if I'm really ignorant or something.  'milkshake' = shaking your ass or dancing, right?  That part, I'm pretty sure of.  Let me ask you something I've been wondering for years...  WTF does 'the yard' mean?  At first, I thought it was some vulgar term for pubic hair but then I remembered that there is no more vulgar term for pubic hair than 'pubic hair'. 

It's obvious that the song means something sexual but I imagine a poor girl making milkshakes and little boys keep coming in and stealing them.  I don't get the sexual innuendo and I am far from naive.  There are only a few things that a yard could mean.

The yard could be literal and milkshakes mean stalkers.  They stand in your yard and watch you make milkshakes through your kitchen window.  Creepy. 

You tell me.  What does it all mean?
