Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh yeah
Don't need permission
Made my decision to test my limits
'Cause it's my business
God as my witness
Start what I finished
Don't need no hold up
Taking control of this kind of moment
I'm locked and loaded
Completely focused my mind is open

All that you got, skin to skin, oh my God
Don't ya stop, boy

Somethin' 'bout you makes me feel like a dangerous woman
Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you
Makes me wanna do things that I shouldn't
Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout

Nothing to prove and I'm bulletproof and
Know what I'm doing
The way we're movin' like introducing
Us to a new thing
I wanna savor, save it for later
The taste of flavor, 'cause I'm a taker
'Cause I'm a giver, it's only nature
I live for danger

All that you got, skin to skin, oh my God
Don't ya stop, boy

Oh yeah
Somethin' 'bout you makes me feel like a dangerous woman
Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you
Makes me wanna do things that I shouldn't
Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you

All girls wanna be like that
Bad girls underneath, like that
You know how I'm feeling inside (somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout)
All girls wanna be like that
Bad girls underneath, like that
You know how I'm feeling inside (somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout)

Somethin' 'bout you makes me feel like a dangerous woman
Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you
Makes me wanna do things that I shouldn't
Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you

All girls wanna be like that
Bad girls underneath like that
You know how I'm feeling inside
Somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout
All girls wanna be like that
Bad girls underneath like that
You know how I'm feeling inside (somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout)

(Yeah, there's somethin' 'bout you boy)
(Yeah, there's somethin' 'bout you boy)
(Yeah, there's somethin' 'bout you boy) somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you

(Yeah, there's somethin' 'bout you boy)




(Yeah, there's somethin' 'bout you boy)
(Yeah, there's somethin' 'bout you boy) somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout, somethin' 'bout you

Overall Meaning

The song Dangerous Woman by Ariana Grande is about a woman who feels powerful and confident in her sexuality. The lyrics are about her taking control of her desires and not needing anyone's permission to do so. She sings about wanting to explore her limits and embracing danger because it excites her. She feels like a dangerous woman when she is with her lover because he brings out a part of her that makes her want to do things she shouldn't. The chorus repeats the phrase "somethin' 'bout you makes me feel like a dangerous woman," emphasizing the idea that her partner is the catalyst for her feeling empowered.


The song's bridge shifts the focus to other women who feel the same way, with the lyrics "All girls wanna be like that, bad girls underneath like that." This lyric suggests that there is a subversive side to all women, but society often discourages them from embracing it. The song is encouraging women to embrace their desires and not be afraid to take risks.


Overall, Dangerous Woman is a bold and empowering anthem that celebrates female sexuality and the power of taking control of one's desires.
