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

Head to toe, ooh baby, rub me right, yeah
But if I share my secret

Overall Meaning

The song "Moves Like Jagger" by Maroon 5 is a fun and flirty tune about a couple who are enjoying their physical connection. The lyrics encourage the listener to let go of inhibitions and be open to new experiences. The chorus, "Take me by the tongue and I'll know you, kiss me 'til you're drunk and I'll show you, all the moves like Jagger," is a reference to Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger's famous stage moves.


The song starts with a suggestion to "shoot for the stars" and "aim for the heart" if it feels right. The singer promises to "behave" if he is taken away. The second verse shows the singer giving in to his partner's desire for control, putting on a show and letting go of his ego. The pre-chorus and chorus are repeated throughout the song, encouraging the listener to let go and enjoy.


The bridge is a playful nod to the fact that the singer has a secret that he will only share if his partner promises to keep it so that "nobody else can see this." The song ends with a reprise of the chorus.

Nostalgia is like drugs, it makes you feel great but afterwards you... you almost realize nothing will ever be the same as that feeling. You will never feel the happiness that you just felt. It’s a hard pill to swallow. You can try to relive the simpler times but you just keep getting older, it keeps getting harder. I’m addicted to this feeling and I’ve been trying so hard to relive it but with the stress of everything... you can’t. I’ve watched countless early 2000’s songs, it works for a little but then I just go back into extreme sadness. It gets worse every video I watch. We have to continue having making memories so when these songs die out and fade away, forgotten and lost in a sea of videos. We can surely say that we’ve had a good run.






But hey, at least we laughed, smiled, and were care free as we heard these songs on the radio in the backseat of your parents car. We didn’t know how stressful and terrible the world was, but we didn’t care. We could be who we wanted to be without responsibilities. Without the fear of growing older. Not a care in the world
But as a very intelligent bear once said,
“We didn’t realize we were making memories, we were just having fun”
-Winne The Pooh
