About This Track

'Jungle' by Charli xcx is a 2010 song whose lyrics frame a solitary figure “in the cold” and then pivot to a bright, reckless plea for young hearts to run free, with inhibitions set aside and a breathless push to move forward. The song repeatedly returns to that youthful escape hatch, while also leaning into a slightly anxious sense of distance before it turns outward.

Lyrics

Jungle

[Verse 1]

You're beautiful with golden hair

And black eyes

But you're alone, you're in the cold

So you hide

[Pre-Chorus]

Young hearts run free

Let our inhibitions be, swinging through the vine trees

Young hearts run free

You can drive me crazy, baby, baby

[Chorus]

I want to go to the jungle, to the jungle with you

Run from home

Rough and tumble down, down (Go, go to the jungle)

Do you want to go to the jungle? To the jungle with me?

We can be, we can be lions

[Post-Chorus]

Go, go to the jungle, go, go, go to the jungle

Go, go, go to the jungle, go, go, go to the jungle (Hey)

Go, go to the jungle, go, go, go to the jungle

Go, go, go to the jungle, go, go, go to the jungle (Hey)

[Verse 2]

This could be our starting out

Our wild lives

And as the wind blows through your hair

You'll find

[Pre-Chorus]

Young hearts run free

Running through the bushes, eating kisses made of candy

Young hearts run free

You can drive me crazy, baby, baby

[Chorus]

I want to go to the jungle, to the jungle with you

Run from home

Rough and tumble down, down (Go, go to the jungle)

Do you want to go to the jungle? To the jungle with me?

We can be, we can be lions

[Bridge]

'Cause I can roar like a lion when I'm running through the breeze

Tear it up like a tiger, get you down on your knees (Hey)

'Cause I can roar like a lion when I'm running through the breeze

Tear it up like a tiger, get you down on your knees

[Breakdown]

I can roar like a lion (Go, go, go to the jungle)

Tear it up, tear it up (Go, go, go to the jungle)

Go, go to the jungle (Roar like a lion)

Go, go, go to the jungle (Roar like a lion)

Go, go, go to the jungle (Roar like a lion)

Lions

[Chorus]

I want to go to the jungle, to the jungle with you

Run from home

Rough and tumble down, down

Do you want to go to the jungle? To the jungle with me?

We can be, we can be lions

I want to go to the jungle, to the jungle with

Run from home

Rough and tumble down, down

Do you want to go to the jungle? To the jungle with me?

We can be, we can be lions

[Outro]

Lions, lions, li-li-li-lions, lions

Lions, lions, lions, lions

Lions, lions (Go, go to the jungle)

Lions, lions (Go, go to the jungle)

Lions, lions (Go, go to the jungle)

Lions, lions (Go, go to the jungle)
