Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don’t like the way he’s looking at you
​I’m starting to think you want him too
​Am I crazy, ​have I lost ya?
​Even though I know you love me, can’t help it

​​​I turn my chin music up
​And I’m puffing my chest
​I’m getting ready to face you
​You can call me obsessed
​It’s not your fault that they hover
​I mean no disrespect
​It’s my right to be hellish
​I still get jealous

​'Cause you’re too sexy, beautiful
​And everybody wants a taste
​That’s why (that’s why)
​I still get jealous

'Cause you’re too sexy, beautiful
​And everybody wants a taste
​That’s why (that’s why)
​I still get jealous

​I wish you didn’t have to post it all
​I wish you’d save a little bit just for me
​Protective or possessive, yeah
​Call it passive or aggressive

​I turn my cheek music up
​And I’m puffing my chest
​I’m getting ready to face you
​You can call me obsessed
​It’s not your fault that they hover
​I mean no disrespect
​It’s my right to be hellish
​I still get jealous

'Cause you’re too sexy, beautiful
​And everybody wants a taste
​That’s why (that’s why)
​I still get jealous

'Cause you’re too sexy, beautiful
​And everybody wants a taste
​That’s why (that’s why)
​I still get jealous

​You’re the only one invited
​I said there’s no one else for you
​'Cause you know I get excited, yeah
​When you get jealous too

​I turn my cheek music up
​And I’m puffing my chest
​I’m turning ready to face you
You can call me obsessed
​It’s not your fault that they hover
​I mean no disrespect
​It’s my right to be hellish
​I still get jealous

'Cause you’re too sexy, beautiful
​And everybody wants a taste
​That’s why (that’s why)
​I still get jealous

'Cause you’re too sexy, beautiful

Overall Meaning

In the song "Jealous" by Nick Jonas, the singer expresses his feelings of insecurity and jealousy towards his partner. He starts by saying that he doesn't like the way another man is looking at her, and he's starting to think that maybe she wants that attention too. Despite knowing that she loves him, he can't help feeling jealous. The chorus repeats the lines, “'Cause you’re too sexy, beautiful, and everybody wants a taste,” and this suggests that her attractiveness is the root cause of his jealousy.


Jonas also admits that he wishes his partner would save some of her attention for him, and he wonders if his feelings are protective or possessive, admitting that he may be passive or aggressive. He turns up his “chin music” and puffs up his chest, getting ready to confront her. His behavior may seem obsessive, but he feels he has a right to be “hellish” because he still gets jealous.


Towards the end of the song, Jonas acknowledges that his partner is the only one invited to his heart, but this doesn't stop his feelings of jealousy. Therefore, he gets ready to face her, again turning up his “cheek music” and puffing his chest. The song ends with the repetition of the chorus indicating that the jealousy is still present.


Overall, the lyrics reveal the complicated emotions of jealousy and insecurities that people can experience in relationships, especially when one partner is considered aesthetically pleasing to others.
