In this sentence...

金龟子在摇摇摆摆中讲着自己的经历

...does 摇摇摆摆 refer to the scarab's manner of speech or to its movement? What is its meaning here?

摇摇摆摆 in this case is an action (noun/verb), not an adjective describing its manner of speech. I guess it means a shaky, uneven walk (or just shaking or wobbling in general).
