Kool Thing Lyrics

[00:37.67] Kool Thing sitting with a kitty
[00:40.90] Now you know you're sure looking pretty
[00:44.28] Like a lover not a dancer
[00:47.29] Superboy take a little chance here
[00:50.42] I don't wanna, I don't think so
[00:56.38] I don't wanna, I don't think so
[01:02.40] Kool Thing let me play it with your radio
[01:05.56] Move me, turn me on, baby-o
[01:08.84] I'll be your slave
[01:11.55] Give you a shave
[01:14.87] I don't wanna, I don't think so
