Doggone lover!
[Stevie]
C'mon boy

[Michael]
I watched wewe on the floor
Cheek to cheek
She's getting to you
wewe didn't see-her eyes on
me-no
She looked right through you
(Before wewe make)
Before wewe make
(A big mistake)
Remember
That looks can fool you
babe, hee!

There's something I would
sure appreciate
(If wewe can keep a secret)

Baby loves me
But she never shows
she cares
(No, wewe won't see her kiss
and hug me)
Baby loves me
No she acts like I'm
not there
(That doesn't mean she
doesn't upendo me-Ooo)

If they ask her
Tell 'em that we're just
good Marafiki . . .
Dah! Chika-chika-chika-ah!
Just good Marafiki . . .
Ah! Chika-chika-ah!
Ooo
(Doot-do-do-doo . . .)
Hee! Aaow!
Just good Marafiki . . .

[Stevie]
wewe better take advice
Never trust-first impressions
I tried to hide this affair
From their suspicions

So even if she's asking you
to stay
wewe better know where
wewe stand
(You better know where
wewe stand)

Baby loves me
Though she never shows
she cares
(No, wewe won't see her kiss
and hug me)
My baby loves me
Though she acts like I'm
not there
(That doesn't mean she
doesn't upendo me-Ooo)

Now if they ask you
Jus' tell 'em that we're just
good Marafiki . . .

Yes . . .just good friends
(Just good Marafiki . . .)
Root-do-do-do . . .
(Doot-do-do-do . . .)
Just good Marafiki . . .

[Michael]
Listen up, hee . . .we've got a
problem here
[Stevie]

[Michael]
I guess the lady
[Both]
Is still making up her mind
(Mind)
(Say we're just good friends)

[Stevie]
Baby loves me
Though she never shows
she cares
(Never shows she cares)
No wewe won't see her kiss
and hug me
(Just good friends)
(My baby loves me)

[Michael]
