Is it the night that you take control of me?
Tell me boy, what's it really gonna be?
Spending time for a while
Oh, Daddy, come close, I'm straight, I'm feeling your style

I love the way you make me feel when you keep it real
When you're holding me, when you're spooning me
When you look sexy, when you're touching me
When you're bumping me gently

Sitting here, waiting in my Vicky's
In the mirror, imagining you're with me
Petit Cheri and I'm smelling real nice
And Jouet could chillin' on ice

Coming over at a half past ten
And I'm wondering if I'm really gonna let him in
Give in, give it up
Let it go or tell him no

Should I give him some?
Maybe
This is the night for fun
Maybe

Here it is and he comes right in
And I fix us drinks and I start to think
About what I'm gonna do, will a brother be true?
Will he size my body up and down?

Can he beat the odds?
Can he play it safe, will he make me hot?
Will he hit the spot that I love a lot?
Will he leave me hanging lonely, desperately?

Will he go and tell all his friends
That we did it and we did it again?
Had me weak between the sheets
Will he say I was a real big freak?

Maybe I should slow it down
Cool off my flow, relax
And let him know if this gets out
No more, no glove, no love, oh, no

Should I give him some?
Maybe
This is the night for fun
Maybe

Should I just give him some?
Maybe
This is the night for fun
Maybe

Maybe, pretty baby
Love me like a lady

Should I say yes or no?
Should I just let it go?
Should I slow down my role?
Let me think 'cuz I really don't know
Don't know what to do about it, baby

Should I say yes or no?
Should I say yes or no?
Should I say yes or no?

Should I give him some?
Maybe
This is the night for fun
Maybe

Should I just give him some?
Maybe
This is the night for fun
Maybe

Should I say yes or no?
Should I say yes or no?
Should I say yes or no?
