Don't be like that, you know you love me
Don't be like that, you know you love me
Lock yourself in your room, you just want to cry, baby
Come out with me, let's go dance
And if some creep comes and starts talking, tell him
"The music's loud, I can't hear you," baby
Update, ma, update
That body, oh, what a delight
Move it like nobody's here
Move that waist, my Shakira
Update, ma, update
That body, oh, what a delight
Move it like nobody's here
Move that waist, my Shakira
Don't be like that, you know you love me
I'm sending you a kiss, muah, muah
Because I know you're stalking me
World peace, I don't want any more fights
Look, look then, look so you learn
All night long close together
Now I wait until dawn
Now I know there's a million pretty girls
But none of them are me, Not today, not tomorrow
If some creep comes and starts talking, tell him
"The music's loud, I can't hear you," baby
Update, ma, update
That body, oh, what a delight
Move it like nobody's here
Move that waist, my Shakira
Update, ma, update
That body, oh, what a delight
Move it like nobody's here
Move that waist, my Shakira
Update, ma, update
Move it like nobody's here
Move that waist, my Shakira
Update, ma, update
That body, oh, what a delight
Move it like nobody's here
Move that waist, my Shakira

asquerosodisgusting / gross (person)

Asqueroso literally means "disgusting" or "gross". While it can describe an object, in this song, it's used to refer to a person, specifically a man.

Kali Uchis uses this strong word to describe an unwanted man who approaches the listener while dancing. The lyrics advise: "Y si un asqueroso viene y empieza a hablar, dile 'La música está fuerte, no te puedo escuchar'" (And if a disgusting guy comes and starts talking, tell him 'The music is loud, I can't hear you'). It's a memorable and assertive way to dismiss someone unwelcome.

"Muévelo" is Kali Uchis telling a heartbroken friend to stop crying alone in her room and come dance instead. The song opens gently, coaxing her out the door, then turns into a confident, playful chorus about moving her body and shutting down anyone ("un asqueroso," a creep) who tries to bother her on the dance floor.

The verses mix Spanish and English, a style Kali Uchis is known for, and the message stays simple throughout: heartbreak passes, and dancing is how you get your power back. She even name-drops Shakira while telling her friend to move her hips like nobody's watching.

By the end, "Muévelo" isn't really about one bad relationship. It's an anthem for shaking off a rough night and reminding yourself you're still that girl.
