Lyrics
Jumping with my boy, Sid, right here in the city
Don't you know that it was grand? (Really grand, so grand)
And then you came along, then you came along, boy (and then)
And sang your groovy song, sang a song, and I asked (you came)
Mr. Whatchacallem, whatcha doing tonight? (He's hot)
Hope you're in the mood because I'm feeling just right (so hot)
How's about a corner with a table for two? (He's got)
Where the music's mellow is a gay rendezvous (a lot)
There's no chance romancing with a blue attitude
You know you got to do some dancing to get in the mood
Mr. Watchacallem, I'm indebted to you (you're good)
You're here, it all goes to show what good influence can do (I'm happy)
Never felt so happy or so fully alive (so happy)
He's a jam a-jumpin', it's a powerful jive! (So drink)
Swing-a-roo is giving me a new attitude
My heart is full of rhythm, and I'm in the mood
In the mood (oh, boy, be mine forever)
In the groove (that boy, and leave me never)
In the mood (oh, joy), give me some kissing
You know it won't be long before you're in the mood! (I'm really in the mood, boy)
Don't be rude (boy, oh, boy, I love you madly)
It's up to you (boy, oh, boy, I'll take you gladly)
Love is blind (boy, oh, boy, my vision's hazy)
It didn't take me long to say I'm in the moo
Ba-do-ba-do-bop-boo-da-boo-day (ba-da-da)
Ba-da-n-da-da-n-do da-n-do-day (ba)
Who's that guy with the beautiful eyes?
(What?) And look at those lips, I'd try 'em for size
Hey! Swing with me!
(Hop!) What a wing it'd be!
May I intrude? It's time to dance, and I'm in the mood!
(Wha!) Oh, hold me, darling, let's dance
(Oh!) What a dreamy romance
(Whoo!) It's a quarter to three
(Ah!) There's a mess-o-that moon, let's share it with me
(Ha!) You know, I think it's rude to keep me this way when I'm in the mood
I'm in the mood, in the groove!
In the mood, ah, ah, ah!
Man-oh-man, wow!
Like, you really got me lookin', oh (wow!)
And you really got me cookin', oh!
My heart went flipping, my brain went skipping (my heart went flip, my brain went skip)
I said c'mon (c'mon) c'mon (c'mon) c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
I'm hot now, oh, boy (I love you madly)
Right now, oh, boy (I'll take you gladly)
Tight now, oh, boy (I'll be in)
And now I'm really in the mood, boy
Rompin'! (Now boy)
Stompin'! (Now boy)
Smokin'! (Now boy)
Why don't we go somewhere and smooch, boy?
It's got to be right now! (Oh, boy)
It's gotta be right now! (Oh, boy)
It's got to be right now! (Oh, boy)
I'm only saying that it didn't take me long (no)
Didn't take me long (no), didn't take me long (no)
To say I'm in the mood (who's the little darling with the beautiful eyes?)
Your flat-foot floozy wants a good boy!
