Scandalous
Prince · Batman
Feel what you've been dyin' for
Don't be afraid, baby
Touch it and explode
Understand, understand that I love you
But more than that, I want you
Everybody always told me
"Good things come to those who wait"
But I've got so much on the menu
I just can't wait, I just can't, I can't wait baby
I can't wait baby
I can wrap my legs around you girl
Cause sugar, you know you're just the kind of lover
That I've been looking for
Tonight, why don't we skip all the foreplay, mama
And just get down here on the floor
Scandalous
I'm talkin' about you and me
Marvelous, baby, baby, can't you see
Anything you've ever dreamed of
I'm willing to be
Tonight it's gonna be scandalous
Cause tonight I'm gonna be your fantasy
My dearest, my dearest
(Whisper) whisper a question
With my body (body), I'll scream a reply
Anything's acceptable
Just ask me and I'll try it
To hell with hesitation
To hell with the reasons why
Scandalous
I'm talkin' about you and me
Marvelous baby, baby, can't you see
Anything you've ever dreamed of
I'm willing to be
Tonight it's gonna be scandalous
Cause tonight I'm gonna be your fantasy
Baby, baby, baby
Oh girl, the things you make me do
Genius is the only way to describe you
Anything you've ever dreamed of baby
Just ask me, I'll do, I'll do
I'll do it for you baby
Anything at all
Spirits rise and spirits fall
Anything you ever dreamed off, I'm willing to be
Tonight is gonna be scandalous
Cause tonight I'm, tonight I'm gonna be your fantasy
Scandalous
I'm talkin' about you and me
Marvelous baby, baby, can't you see
Anything you've ever dreamed of
I'm willing to be
Tonight it's gonna be scandalous
Cause tonight I'm gonna be your fantasy
Scandalous, marvelous

The track showcases his signature blend of funk and pop, driven by a propulsive rhythm and his distinctive falsetto vocals. Released during a period where Prince frequently collaborated with major film franchises, the song reflects his ability to craft catchy, radio-friendly anthems that still retained his unique artistic flair. As part of the Batman album, it sits alongside other energetic recordings that defined the late 1980s sound. The recording demonstrates Prince's mastery of production, layering synthesizers and tight drum patterns to create an infectious groove. This work remains a testament to his prolific output and enduring influence on popular music, offering listeners a concise example of his dynamic style during a celebrated era of his career.
