kiss











Prince and the Revolution showed us that you don't have to watch 'Dynasty' to have an attitude with this funky little come-on. During the recording sessions for his album 'Parade' Prince dashed off an acoustic demo of the song for Mazarati, a band formed by his former bass player Brown Mark that he had signed to his Paisley Park label. Minneapolis producer David Z worked with the band to transform it into the groovy little number we know now. When they played it for Prince he decided to take it back and put his own falsetto vocals on their backing track and add it to the album he had just finished. Although Warner didn't want to release the song as a single, it became the third number one for Prince in the states and was a top ten hit in the UK. At the Grammys, 'Kiss' won Best R&B Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group and was nominated for Best R&B Song. It is one of my favorite songs to do in karaoke.





U don't have 2 be beautiful
2 turn me on
I just need your body baby
From dusk till dawn
U don't need experience
2 turn me out
U just leave it all up 2 me
I'm gonna show u what it's all about

U don't have 2 be rich
2 be my girl
U don't have 2 be cool
2 rule my world
Aint no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your

Kiss

U got to not talk dirty, baby
If u wanna impress me
U can't be 2 flirty, mama
I know how 2 undress me (yeah)
I want 2 be your fantasy
Maybe u could be mine
U just leave it all up to me
We could have a good time

U don't have 2 be rich
2 be my girl
U don't have 2 be cool
2 rule my world
Aint no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your

Kiss

Yes
I think I wanna dance
Gotta, gotta
Little girl Wendy's parade
Gotta, gotta, gotta

Women not girls rule my world
I said they rule my world
Act your age, mama (not your shoe size)
Not your shoe size
Maybe we could do the twirl
U don't have 2 watch dynasty
2 have an attitude
U just leave it all up 2 me
My love will be your food
Yeah

U don't have 2 be rich
2 be my girl
U don't have 2 be cool
2 rule my world
Aint no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your

Kiss
