Lyrics

Just shoot for the stars

if it feels right, and aim for my heart

if you feel like it.

Take me a way and make it o kay, I swear I’ll be have.

You want ed con trol,

so we wait ed.

I put on a show,

now we’re na ked.

You say I’m a kid,

my e go is big.

I don’t give a sh**.

And it goes like this:

Take me by the tongue and I’ll know you.

Kiss me ’til you’re drunk and I’ll show you all the (Em7)moves like Jag ger.

I’ve got the moves like Jag ger, I’ve got the moves

like Jag ger.

I don’t need to try to con trol you.

Look in to my eyes and I’ll own you with them (Em7)moves like Jag ger.

I’ve got the moves like Jag ger, I’ve got the moves.

Ba by, it’s hard

when you feel like you’re bro ken and scarred,

noth in’ feels right.

But when you’re with me,

I’ll make you be lieve

that I’ve got the key.

So get in the car,

we can ride it wher ev er you want,

get in side it.

And you wan na steer,

but I’m shift in’ gear.

I’ll take it from here.

And it goes like this: Take me by the tongue and I’ll know you.

Kiss me ’til you’re drunk and I’ll show you all the (Em7)moves like Jag ger.

I’ve got the moves like Jag ger, I’ve got the moves

like Jag ger.

I don’t need to try to con trol you.

Look in to my eyes and I’ll own you with them (Em7)moves like Jag ger.

I’ve got the moves like Jag ger, I’ve got the moves.

Like Jag ger.

You wan na know

how to make me smile,

take con trol, own me just for the night.

But if I share my se cret, you’re gon na have to keep it.

No bod y else can see this.

So watch and learn,

I won’t show you twice.

Head to toe, oh, ba by, rub me right.

But if I share my se cret, you’re gon na have to keep it.

No bod y else can see this, hey, hey, hey, yeah.

And it goes like this: moves.

like Jag ger.
