Moves Like Jagger
Arlene Zelina Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If it feels right
Then aim for my heart
If you feel like
Can take me away, make it okay
I swear I'll behave
You wanted control
I put on a show
Now I make it
You say I'm a kid
My ego is big
I don't give a sh*t
And it goes like this
Take me by the tongue and I'll know you
Kiss me till you're drunk and I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the mooooooves... like Jagger
I don't need to try to control you
Look into my eyes and I'll own you
With them moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the mooooooves... like Jagger
Maybe it's hard
And it feel like
You're broken and scarred
Nothing feels right
But when you're with me
I make you believe
That I've got the key
So get in the car
We can ride it
Wherever you want
Get inside it
And you want to steer
But I'm shifting gears
I'll take it from here
And it goes like this
Take me by the tongue and I'll know you
Kiss me till you're drunk and I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the mooooooves... like Jagger
I don't need to try to control you
Look into my eyes and I'll own you
With them moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the mooooooves... like Jagger
You wanna know
How to make me smile
Take control, own me just for the night
But if I share my secret
You're gonna have to keep it
Nobody else can see this
So watch and learn
I won't show you twice
Head to toe, ooh baby, rub me right
But if I share my secret
You're gonna have to keep it
Nobody else can see this
And it goes like this
Take me by the tongue and I'll know you
Kiss me till you're drunk and I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the mooooooves... like Jagger
I don't need to try to control you
Look into my eyes and I'll own you
With them moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the mooooooves... like Jagger
The song "Moves like Jagger" by Maroon 5 features Arlene Zelina and talks about a woman who has the "moves like Jagger," referring to Mick Jagger of The Rolling Stones. The lyrics suggest that the woman has a charm and sex appeal that is irresistible to her partner, who wants to follow her lead and be dominated by her. There is a sense of confidence and control in the woman's actions, which appear to excite and entice her partner.
The opening lines of the song suggest that the woman is capable of achieving any goal she sets her sights on. Her partner admires her ambition and wants to be a part of her life. The woman knows she has the power to make him feel good and promises to behave. The second verse reveals that the woman is in control of the relationship, and her partner is happy to go along with whatever she wants. He is mesmerized by her and is willing to follow her lead.
The chorus repeats the idea that the woman has the moves like Jagger and knows how to use them to charm her partner. She doesn't need to try to control him because he willingly submits to her. The lyrics suggest that the woman possesses a secret that she will only share with her partner if he promises to keep it to himself. The overall theme of the song is the woman's sexual dominance and the power of her charm.

I like how this song is simplified by just rhthym, guitar and Arlene's voice. That's all it needs. I bought it, Arlene, and I love it so much I may use it as a warm up in my Zumba classes!
