I have come across the lyrics from a song which I don't get the meaning.
"If you're thirsty, put your body in motion
Diamonds 'round your neck stay frozen
Bounce to my arms, I'll hold you
Right now, I don't wanna be sober
Why shouldn't we be somewhere having a good time?"
Anyone knows what this whole paragraph (especially the first two sentences) mean? Thank you so much.

you are trying to find meaning where there's none
songs are for emotions, not for logical analysis

The answer is . . . . song lyrics frequently don't make literal sense.
I'm a native speaker and the first two sentences don't really mean anything to me either. Song lyrics commonly use words to trigger your imagination, emotions, etc. So, just listen to them and see what your imagination comes up with.
'scuse me while I kiss the sky.' 'I am the walrus, kukukatchoo."
