In the Mood Lyrics

[Intro]
(Ooh, ooh)
(La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la)

[Verse 1]
Come here, baby
Girl, I wanna make sweet love to you, oh-oh
Honey, sugar
It ain't no tellin' what I'm gonna do
What a feeling
Feeling good feeling like you never felt
Just like ice cream
And honey, my love is gonna make you melt

[Chorus]
Ooh-hoo
Are you in the mood, baby?
Hoo-hoo
Are you in the mood, yeah
Hoo baby


[Bridge]
(La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la)

[Verse 2]
Now's the moment
Girl, we ain't got no time to lose
Time's a wastin'
Ooh I got so much love to use on you, baby
My heart is crying
Feel my love for it in the night for you
It's so inspiring
I never need another, you're the one I choose
[Chorus]
Hoo-hoo
Are you, yeah-yeah
In the mood, baby?
Hoo-hoo
Are you, yeah-yeah-yeah
In the mood, yeah


[Post-Chorus]
(Are you in the mood, baby?) In the mood
(Are you in the mood?) Baby
(Are you in the mood, baby?)

[Chorus]
(Are) Are you, you
In the mood, baby?
Are you, yeah-yeah-yeah
In the mood, yeah


[Outro]
(Are you)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

About

This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation

Stabs of blazing horns give way to a meandering, bass-lead rhythm section. It tiptoes along with bursts of soaring harmonies and flute giving way to Tyrone’s smooth, sultry pleading vocal. Horns blaze, harmonies soar and the bass provides a pulsating heartbeat. Tyrone’s needy vocal is filled with emotion and drama, reflected by the horns, pleading harmonies and lush strings. Chiming guitars and melodic keyboards provide the perfect backdrop for Tyrone’s vocal, as sets the scene and gets in the Mood.

This is one of the greatest sex songs ever, chill songs period, one of the greatest songs to sit back and get high too as well. This song was also heard on Next Friday.
