Spoon

(Chaka Khan, Robert Palmer and Howard McCrary)

I got me some cookin'
Not all that good lookin'
He's mighty sweet to me
That's how he's keepin' me

I ain't worried `bout the future
The here and now is lookin' cuter
I like his recipe
That's why I'm layin'

[Chorus:]
You are just like my favorite spoon
Cause you stir me up
I'm as full as a harvest moon
Still I need more in my cup
And only you can give it to me

Am I happy? (I think so)
Don't be so emotional (I can't help it, no)
Will he be there? (I think so)
It's one thing that I do know
This I know

Everybody needs to feel it
Can't beg, borrow or steal it
Love is all about lovin'
When it's hot like an oven

I ain't worried `bout the future
The here and now is lookin' cuter
Got plenty 'o time for sortin'
Cause Mama's little baby loves her shortnin' bread

[Chorus]
