When questioned about their name, the girls mentioned that oldest member, Jess, came up with it. The four had been recording club hit; "Welcome to the Jungle" and decided that due to their vibrant personalities, "Neon Jungle" made sense. The song was actually recorded before second single; "Braveheart", yet the girls decided the high octane energy and major bass of "Braveheart" would be the best option for their second single. The group separated in 2015.

Boy can you make me growl with the wild things on the prowl
Welcome to the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Welcome to the (Jungle)
La la la la la la
La di da di hands on my body
La la la la la la
La di da di hands on my body
La la la la la la oh just love me down
Sitting boy hit me up at a bar
Dark and smooth like a jaguar
Ask one time and I'll make you my star
And you know you want to
If you wanna get deep in the club
Must ruffle up give me that jungle love
Only one winner one bad man time
And I know I want you
Tonight I'll hunt you down
Boy can you make me growl with the wild things on the prowl
Welcome to the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Welcome to the (Jungle)
La la la la la la
La di da di hands on my body
La la la la la la oh just love me down
La la la la la la

La la la la la la oh just love me down
When you hungry then I'll be your cow
Come now help me make the kitty cat purr
Top of the food chain, top of the world
And you know you want to
On your toes unpredictable
One on one, done wild animal
Instinct kicks in I can't control
And you know I want you
Welcome to the jungle
Be hot like Rocky no A$AP
Got game like A-Trak
You want that, I stay strapped
You not down, don't say that
Super faded, ready gone
She super bad, hardly wrong
Do your dust while they play my song
Excuse me shorty, you o-o-owned
Too trilled? Then I'm sorry
Got two seats in this 'Rari
For this pussy popping safari
So fuck, let's party
It's two cliques, one crew
Tutus in my two coupes
Girl do you, but let me too
Welcome to the jungle
Welcome to the jungle
Tonight I'll hunt you down
Boy can you make me growl with the wild things on the prowl
Welcome to the jungle
Neon Jungle's "Welcome to the Jungle" is a high-energy, seductive track that revolves around the idea of the jungle as a metaphor for the wild and free lifestyle that the singers seek. The song begins with a declaration of intent from the female singer, who promises to hunt down her prey (presumably the listener) and make them "growl with the wild things on the prowl." The refrain "Welcome to the jungle" reinforces the idea of this being a place where anything goes and anyone can indulge their primal desires without fear of judgment.
The second verse sees the singer taking on the role of a seductress, inviting a man to approach her with the promise of turning him into a star. The lyrics use animalistic imagery to underscore the sense of raw passion and physicality that the singers are pursuing; words like "jaguar," "animal," and "instinct" all emphasize the idea of losing oneself in the heat of the moment. Meanwhile, the chorus repeats the song's opening lines, driving home the point that this is a place where anything can happen, and the rules of society no longer apply.
The bridge section of the song features male vocals, introducing a new perspective that seems to reflect a more macho attitude. This part of the song is more explicit in its sexual references, with lines like "got two seats in this 'Rari / For this pussy popping safari" leaving nothing to the imagination. However, the overall message of the song remains the same: this is a world where you can be whoever you want to be, do whatever you want to do, and let your desires run wild.

Iconic queens.
They were really ahead of their time - all their songs were bops and every single they released (with the exception of cant stop the love) was a hit in the UK.
Mozart Herbert
That's one of the best pop songs ever! I get crazy at 2:57, best part! One of the coolest girlbands with one of the coolest sounds but yet so underrated :( They deserved to be bigger.
Jessica
how is it possible that every song they release is a hit? SOOO GOOD
