Gonna find my baby gonna hold her tight
Gonna grab some afternoon delight
My mottos always been when it's right it's right
Why wait until the middle of a cold dark night
When every things a little clearer in the light of day
And we know the night is always gonna be here anyway
Thinking of you's working up my appetite
Looking forward to a little after noon delight
Rubbing sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite
And the thought of rubbing you is getting so exciting
Sky rockets in flight after noon de light
After noon de light after noon de light
Started out this morning feeling so polite
I always thought a fish could not be caught who didn't bite
But you got some bait awaitin' and I think I might
Like nibbling a little after noon delight
Be waiting for me baby when I come around
We can make a lot of loving 'fore the sun gone down
