Don't Stop
Five Seconds of Summer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're like perfection, some kind of holiday
You got me thinking that we could run away
You want I'll take you there,
You tell me when and where,
Oh oh oh oh

But then I asked for your number,
Said you don't have a phone
It's getting late now,
I gotta let you know

That everybody wants to take you home tonight
But I'm gonna find a way to make you mine

Don't stop doin' what you're doin'
Every time you move to the beat
It gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room
You got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it

You're coming close now, swear I can taste it,
You got me tongue tied, I can't escape it
I'm loving what you got,
But then you push me off,
Oh oh oh oh

And everybody wants to take you home tonight
But I'm gonna find a way to make you mine

Don't stop doin' what you're doin'
Every time you move to the beat
It gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room
You got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it

Every day it's the same love and games that you play
Back and forth, round and round, kinda like it this way

Don't stop doin' what you're doin'
'Cause every time you move to the beat
It gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop 'cause you know that I like it
Every time you walk in the room
You got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it, know it

Don't stop (don't stop, stop what you're doing) doin' what you're doin'
'Cause you know that, you know that I like it
Every time you move to the beat
It gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it
Don't stop, 'cause you know that I like it (you know that I like it)
Every time you walk in the room




You got all eyes on you
And you know it, know it, know it

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Five Seconds of Summer's song Don't Stop center around a love interest that the singer is completely infatuated with. The first verse conveys how the singer views his love interest like “perfection” and describes their chemistry as almost like being on vacation. The singer wants to escape with this person and is willing to take them wherever they want to go. However, when the singer asks for the person's number, they reveal they don't have a phone, leaving the singer feeling a sense of urgency to make some kind of move before it's too late.


In the second verse, the singer talks about how his love interest has him “tongue-tied” and that he's “loving what they got.” Despite this, the person continually pushes the singer away, leading him to become frustrated that everyone else wants to take them home instead of him. The chorus emphasizes how the singer wants the person to keep doing what they're doing because he likes it so much, and every time they move or walk in the room, everyone's eyes are on them.


Overall, the song's lyrics highlight the intensity of infatuation and how hard it can be to make a move when you find someone so captivating. It's like the singer is stuck in this loop, where they want to make a move, but the love interest keeps pushing them away.

"They're a boy band because they have no girl members"
Queen
The Beatles
Oasis
Bastille
Blink 182
Greenday
Nirvana
BeeGees
Fall Out Boy.
Need I go on?
All of those bands are regarded as bands, yet should be boy bands through that logic?
