Move
Cansei de Ser Sexy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
you gotta keep on moving (x4)
Backwards straight to the dance floor
will you still be waiting for me? will you still be my friend?
i don't wanna bug you
All these crazy, crazy ideas
For i know this ain't a good place for us to talk
You better get your move on
or all the good ones will have gone (3x)
Get up, get up, get up, get up
you gotta keep on moving (x4)
If you wanna say goodbye,
if you want to play seek and hide
just tail got the time
playing nice you know what?
You better get your move on
or all the good ones will have gone (3x)
Get up, get up, get up, get up
you gotta keep on moving (x4)
The song "Move" by Brazilian electro-rock band Cansei de Ser Sexy (CSS) is an upbeat track that encourages the listener to keep moving forward. The lyrics seem to address a potential romantic interest, with the singer questioning whether the subject of the song would still be waiting for them at the dance floor or if they'd still be friends. Despite these questions, the singer ultimately decides that the club isn't the place to hash things out and encourages the subject to keep dancing and have a good time. The chorus, "you gotta keep on moving," reinforces this idea of forward momentum and not getting stuck in any one place or situation.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of missed opportunities. The line "you better get your move on / or all the good ones will have gone" suggests that the singer is aware of the fleeting nature of opportunities and urges the subject to act quickly if they don't want to miss out on something good. The lyrics also reference playing games and seeking attention, but ultimately come back to the idea of moving forward and not getting bogged down in drama or indecisiveness.
Overall, "Move" is a high-energy track that encourages the listener to keep pushing forward and not get stuck in any one place or situation. It addresses themes of missed opportunities, social dynamics, and romantic uncertainty, but ultimately lands on a positive and upbeat message of keeping the momentum going.

Lembro de um menino da sala que tinha um DVD cheio de clipes e ele emprestava pra todo mundo e tinha esse clipe no meio, nossa, passei anos pra descobrir que música era essa e o pessoal do LDRV me ajudou a encontrar essa pérola ❤️
