Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Having the best time
And then all of a sudden
This person comes up to me and says
This is not your jungle
What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
Girl this ain’t your jungle
She said
Kid this ain’t yours either
You can’t turn my rain to snow
Why you go round claimin’
things you never even owned?
Boy you better back it up now
Else my monkeys gonna show
This is my jungle
As much as it is yours
This is my jungle
I won’t listen to your laws
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
No
I won’t listen to your laws
He said
Girl I got these feelings
That I don’t know how to show
I said
Boy if I believe it
Then you’ll reap just what you sow
Why you go round claimin’
Things I never even loaned?
Boy you better back it up now
Or else my monkeys gonna show
Cause this is my jungle
As much as it is yours
This is my jungle
I won’t listen to your laws
No
I won’t listen to your laws
To your laws
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
This is not your jungle
What the fuck is that supposed to mean?
I’ll block my ears
Cause they’re just your fears
I’ll block my ears
Cause they’re just your fears
(Are you scared that I’ve got a point of view?)
I’ll block my ears
Cause they’re just your fears
I’ll block my ears
Cause they’re just -
This is my jungle
As much as it is yours
This is my jungle
I won’t listen to your laws
This is my jungle
As much as it is yours
This is my jungle
I won’t listen to your laws
No
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
I was dancin’ on the dance floor
I danced even harder
Obviously
In "My Head is a Jungle" by Lexy & K. Paul, the lyrics depict a confrontation that occurs on the dance floor. The singer, who is having a great time dancing, is suddenly approached by someone who tells them that the dance floor does not belong to them and questions their presence there. In response, the singer expresses confusion and frustration, wondering what the person meant by saying, "This is not your jungle."
A female voice then comes in, asserting that the dance floor is not only the singer's, but also hers and perhaps others'. She declares that the singer has other opportunities and areas for personal growth, just as she does. There is a sense of territoriality as she states that they both cannot claim ownership of everything and warns the singer to back off or else she will retaliate, symbolically represented by her "monkeys."
As the song continues, the dynamic shifts as the conversation evolves into a discussion of emotions and vulnerability. The singer admits to having feelings that they struggle to express, and the female voice responds by emphasizing the importance of believing in those emotions. She warns that if the singer makes false claims about her, it will result in negative consequences. The territorial theme continues as she mentions "loaned" items, implying that the singer has tried to take her possessions without permission.
Throughout the song, both voices maintain their stance on ownership of the metaphorical "jungle." They refuse to abide by each other's rules and emphasize their independence. The repeated lines "This is my jungle as much as it is yours" highlight their equal right to be present and express themselves freely in this space.
The singer concludes the song by vowing not to listen to the other person's laws and asserts their determination to continue dancing on the dance floor. The line "I danced even harder, obviously" suggests a sense of defiance and resilience in the face of the confrontation, further emphasizing their refusal to be restrained by the other's judgment.
Overall, "My Head is a Jungle" explores themes of ownership, territoriality, emotions, and defiance. It encourages individuals to assert their presence and express their feelings without succumbing to the expectations or restrictions imposed by others.

Lyrics :
In a dark room we fight
Make up for our lost
I've been thinking, thinking 'bout you,
'Bout us
And we're moving, slow
Our hearts beat, so fast
I've been dreaming, dreaming 'bout you
'Bout us
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head, and oh
Oh
I'm speaking
Soft
See the pain in your eyes
I've feelin', feelin' for you, my love
And our bodies, are tired
Our shadows will dance
I've been achin' achin' for you, my love
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head
My love is wasted, sorry for this I never meant to be
Hurting ourselves, hurting ourselves and I'm
Complicated, you won't get me, I have trouble
Understanding myself, understanding myself and my
Love is wasted, sorry for this I never meant to be
Hurting ourselves, hurting ourselves and I'm
Complicated, you won't get me I have trouble
Understanding myself, understanding myself
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head is a jungle, jungle
My head
Ho oh oh
Ho oh oh, oh
Ho oh oh
