I need 10cc's of hot passion
A serious love reaction
Give it to me
'Cause I need your love

Woman, heal me
Feel my heartbeat
Keep this body from a dangerous overheat
Give it to me
'Cause I need your love

Emergency, emergency

I need love, I need you
I need a cure, what should I do
Give it to me, urgent
Your love, emergency

Suddenly I'm growing so strong
With every touch, baby
Of your electric body
You rescued me from the fire of heartbreak
And you knew just what I should take
Thank you girl for my survival
And a love so strong
You feel so good
It's much more than physical
Heaven-sent, it's, oh, so beautiful

Come I need you deep in my system
Love your cool, it's so addicting
Give it to me, urgent
'Cause I need your love
Emergency, emergency

Sweet sensations passing through us
As we're making love
Give it to me, urgent
I need your love, baby
Emergency, emergency

You energize me
Standing beside me
Love and affection
Kiss and attention
Give it to me
Emergency, emergency

Suddenly I'm growing so strong
With every touch, baby
Of your electric body
You rescued me from the fire of heartbreak
And you knew just what I should take
Thank you girl for my survival
And a love so strong
You feel so good
It's much more than physical
Heaven-sent, it's, oh, so beautiful

Emergency
Emergency, emergency
Urgent
Give it to me
Emergency

Kool & the Gang is an American jazz, R&B, soul, funk, and disco group from Jersey City. They were originally named the Jazziacs when they formed the group in 1964.

They went through several musical phases during their recording career, starting out with a purist jazz sound, then funk and R&B, progressing to a smooth pop-funk ensemble, and in the post-millennium creating music with a modern, electro-pop sound.

The group was becoming prominent in the music industry in the 1970s with hits such as “Holly Wood Swinging”, “Jungle Boogie” and “Summer Madness”. However they cemented their legendary status after the addition of lead vocalist James “J.T.” Taylor. With his help they went on to create classic hits such as “Ladies Night”, “Celebration”, “Get Down On It”, “Cherish” and countless others.
