Lyrics
I know I may be young, but I've got feelings too
The singer acknowledges being young but still asserts having emotions that deserve consideration.
And I need to do what I feel like doing
Expresses the need to act according to personal desires and feelings.
So let me go, and just listen
Asks for the freedom to express oneself without interruption.
All you people look at me like I'm a little girl
Feeling perceived as a young girl by others.
Well did you ever think it'd be ok for me to step into this world
Questioning the societal expectations that restrict entering certain domains based on age.
Always saying little girl don't step into the club
Rebelling against advice or norms preventing her from going to clubs.
Well I'm just tryin' to find out why 'cause dancing's what I love
Expressing love for dancing and curiosity about why it's discouraged.
Get it get it, get it get it (oh)
Repetition emphasizing the desire to "get it" (presumably dance or have fun).
Get it get it, get it get it (oh)
-Get it get it, get it get it (oh)
-I know I may come off quiet, I may come off shy
Acknowledging a reserved demeanor but feeling the urge to engage when attracted to someone.
But I feel like talking, feel like dancing when I see this guy
Feeling the desire to talk and dance when in the presence of a specific person.
What's practical is logical, what the hell, who cares?
Questioning societal norms, suggesting happiness outweighs practicality.
All I know is I'm so happy when you're dancing there
Feeling joyful while seeing someone dance.
I'm a slave for you, I cannot hold it, I cannot control it
Admitting a feeling of being captivated or controlled by someone or something (potentially a romantic interest or music).
I'm a slave for you, I won't deny it, I'm not trying to hide it
-Baby, don't you wanna, dance up on me
Expressing the desire to dance with someone, leaving behind personal details to enjoy the moment.
(I just wanna dance next to you)
-To another time and place
-Oh baby, don't you wanna, dance up on me
-(Are you ready)
-Leaving behind my name, and age
-(Let's go)
