Now that I have captured your attention
I wanna steal you for a rhythm and affection
Mr. T said I’m ready for inspection
Show me how you make your first impression
Oh! Oh! Can we take this in
Slow! Slow!
Break it down and drop it
Low! Low!
'Cause I just want to party all night in the neon lights 'til you can let me go!

I just wanna feel your body right next to mine
All night long, baby slow down the song
And when it’s coming closer to the end hit rewind
All night long, baby slow down the

Breath me in breath me out so amazing!

Overall Meaning

The song "Slow Down" by Selena Gomez is a pop-dance track that talks about dancing and having fun. The first verse of the song goes "Now that I have captured your attention/ I wanna steal you for a rhythm and affection," which shows the singer's desire to dance with someone and feel their body next to hers. She also mentions Mr. T and how he's ready for inspection, which could be interpreted as how she's ready to be judged for her dance moves. She asks the person to slow down the song, break it down and drop it low, meaning she wants to dance slowly and sexily. The chorus repeats the desire to dance all night long until the eventual end of the night.


The second verse talks about how she's accepting applications from anyone who wants to dance with her. She also mentions how good she is at mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, which could be interpreted as how amazing she is as a dancer. The bridge includes the lines "The music's got me going/ No stopping till the morning," which shows how the singer is fully absorbed in the music and wants to dance all night long.
