Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
Gonna grab some afternoon delight
My motto's always been when it's right, it's right
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night?
[Bridge]
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day?
And we know the night is always gonna be here anyway?
[Verse 2]
Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
Lookin' forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so excitin'
[Chorus]
Skyrockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
[Verse 3]
Started out this mornin' feeling so polite
I always thought a fish could not be caught, it didn't bite
But you got some bait a-waitin', and I think I might
Like nibblin' a little afternoon delight
[Chorus]
Skyrockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
[Bridge]
Be waitin' for me, baby, when I come around
We could make a lot of lovin' 'fore the sun go down
[Verse 4]
Thinkin' of you's workin' up my appetite
Lookin' forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbin' sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite
And the thought of lovin' you is getting so excitin'
[Chorus]
Skyrockets in flight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
Afternoon delight
[Outro]
A-afternoon delight
A-afternoon delight
