What you gon' cuddle to? What you gon' cuddle to?

Well, it must be "Misty Blue"

Tell me what you got on your menu, serve it up, I know that it's in you

Serve it up, serve it up, serve it up, serve it up, serve it up

Listen to the music that made you

Tune in to what your mama played you

Time to celebrate, time to create before it's too late, oh

Slow dance, what do they play? (What do you think they play?)
