Moves Like Jagger
Christina Aguilera Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh
Oh

Just shoot for the stars if it feels right
And aim for my heart if you feel like it
Take me away and make it okay
I swear I'll behave
You wanted control so we waited
I put on a show now we're naked
You say I'm a kid, my ego is big
I don't give a shit
And it goes like this

Take me by the tongue and I'll know you
Uh, kiss me 'til you're drunk and I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger

Uh, I don't need to try to control you
Uh, 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 moves like Jagger

Baby it's hard when you 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

Oh, so get in the car we can ride it
Wherever you want get inside it
And you want to steer, but I'm shifting gear
I'll take it from here
Oh yeah yeah, and it goes like this

Take me by the tongue and I'll know you
Uh, kiss me 'til you're drunk and I'll show you
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger (ooh)

Uh, I don't need to try to control you (oh yeah)
Uh, look into my eyes and I'll own you
With them moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger (yeah)
I've got the moves like Jagger (yeah, yeah)

Uh, you want to 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, ah

So watch and learn
I won't show you twice
Head to toe, ooh baby, rub me right, yeah
But if I share my secret
You're gonna have to keep it
Nobody else can see this, eh, yeah yeah yeah

And it goes like this
Uh, kiss me 'til you're drunk and I'll show you (take me by the tongue)
Kiss me 'til you're drunk and I'll show you (eh, yeah)
All the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger (ah, yeah)

Uh, I don't need to try to control you (yeah, ooh)
Uh, look into my eyes and I'll own you (oh-oh)
With them moves like Jagger




I've got the moves like Jagger
I've got the moves like Jagger

Overall Meaning

The song "Moves Like Jagger" by Maroon 5 featuring Christina Aguilera is all about taking control and letting loose. The lyrics suggest that the singer is confident in their abilities to please their partner and show off their good moves. The song starts off with a positive vibe, suggesting that the singer wants their partner to aim for the stars and take them away. The lyrics then take a turn as the singer admits that their partner wanted control, but the singer put on a show and now they are naked. Despite their partner calling them a kid and having a big ego, the singer doesn't care and continues to show off their moves.


The chorus of the song talks about the singer's moves being like those of Mick Jagger, the lead singer of the Rolling Stones. The lyrics suggest that the singer can make their partner believe that they have the key to happiness and take them wherever they want. The singer continues to boast about their moves, claiming that they don't need to try to control their partner, but rather just look into their eyes and own them. The final verse is about the singer sharing their secret: if their partner wants to know how to make them smile, they will have to keep it a secret.
