Overall Meaning

Willy Moon's "What I Want" is a fun, upbeat and catchy song that centers around the idea of the singer knowing exactly what he wants and expressing it to his lover in a clear and direct way. The lyrics are straightforward and repetitive, creating an infectious and memorable chorus that invites the listener to sing along.


The song opens with the confident declaration of "You know what I want, well I got what you need," signaling that the singer is not afraid to be honest and upfront about his desires. He implores his lover to listen to him and to do the right thing, which is presumably to fulfill his wants and needs. However, he is also willing to reciprocate, promising to love her night and day.


The bridge of the song takes on a slightly different tone, as the singer pleads with his lover to set him free and to do what she needs to do to make their relationship work. Despite his confidence and assertiveness, he recognizes the importance of compromise and mutual effort in maintaining a healthy relationship.


Overall, "What I Want" is a fun and lighthearted song that balances confident declarations with vulnerability and a commitment to mutual effort and compromise in relationships.
