I'm telling you she's cold to her soul
Everything ain't glitter and gold,

Such a maniac, under her control.

Give your all, she wants more and more and more

Maniac
The lyrics of Joe Jonas's song Kleptomaniac tells the story of a girl who is dangerous and cunning. The opening lines paint the picture of a girl who can lure men in with just a smile, but she is not to be trusted. She is a thief, both literally and figuratively, and one should not keep anything of value in their pockets around her. She knows how to manipulate and will poison your mind to get what she wants. The chorus warns that she is a kleptomaniac who will steal your heart and control you completely. She always wants more, and it is impossible to give too much to her. The ending lines of the song are a plea for the listener to recognize that everything that glitters is not gold, and the dangerous girl in the song is not to be underestimated.
