I'm bringin' sexy back (yeah)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song "SexyBack" by Justin Timberlake featuring Timbaland primarily deal with confidently exuding and celebrating one's sensuality and sexual prowess, and enticing someone else to do the same in the process. Justin establishes himself as a provider of something unique and pleasurable that others do not possess or understand ("I'm bringin' sexy back, them other boys don't know how to act"), and invites the listener to embrace their own physical and sexual power ("Get your sexy on, and get gone with it"). The lines "Dirty babe, you see these shackles, baby, I'm your slave" suggest a desire to submit to the object of desire, or to engage in the pleasure of BDSM with a willing partner. However, the lyrics also contain elements of sexism and objectification, with lyrics such as "Look at those hips" and "And get gone with it", which can be seen as reducing women to purely sexual objects or performers. The song features a catchy and upbeat electronic beat produced by Timbaland, which compliments the mood of the lyrics well.
