Mr. What-ya-call-em what you doin tonight

Hope you're in the mood because I'm feeling just right

How's about a corner with a table for two

Where the music's mellow in some gay rendezvous

There's no chance romancin' with a blue attitude

You got to do some dancin' to get in the mood



Sister What-ya-call-em that's a kindly idea

Something swing-a-dilla would be good to my ear

Ev'rybody must agree the dancin' has charm

When you have the certain one you love in your arms

Steppin' out with you will be a sweet interlude

A builder-up with that will put me in the mood



In the mood - that's it I got it

In the mood - your ear will spot it

In the mood - oh what a hot hit

Be alive and get the jive

You've got to learn how



Hep, hep, hep - hep like a hepper

Pep, pep, pep - hot as a pepper

Step, step, step - step like a stepper

We're muggin' and huggin'

We're in the mood now



Mr. What-ya-call-em all you needed was fun

You can see the wonders that this evenin' has done

Your feet were so heavy 'til they hardly could move

Now they're light as feathers and you're right in the groove

You were only hungry for some musical food

You're positively, absolutely in the mood



Sister What-ya-call-em I'm indebted to you

It all goes to show what food and fluids can do

Never felt so happy and so fully alive

Seems that jammin' jumpin' is a powerful jive

Swingeroo is giving me a new attitude

My heart is full of rhythm and I'm in the mood



In the mood that's it 'cause I got it and I'm

In the mood your ear will spot it when you're

In the mood bobbity bop a diddly-bop-a-bop-a

Be alive and get the jive-aca
