Chocolate
Nico Gomez And His Orchestra Lyrics

The lyrics to Nico Gomez And His Orchestra's song "Chocolate" depict a person who is alone, but content with themselves because they are saving their love for someone special. The opening lines of "No one to talk with, all by myself, no one to walk with, I'm happy on the shelf" highlight the person's solitude. However, despite being alone, they are "ain't misbehavin'", implying that they are not engaging in any reckless or impulsive behavior.

The next verse, "Mama, I know for certain, the one I love, through with flirting, just you that I'm thinkin' of, misbehavin', savin' my love for you" suggests that the person in the song is in a mutually exclusive relationship. They have found the person they love and have no interest in flirting with others. The chorus repeats the idea of "misbehavin'" but clarifies that they are doing so to "save" their love for the specific person they are committed to.

The last verse, "I don't stay out late, don't care to go, home about eight, me and my radio, misbehavin', savin' love for you" again emphasizes the person's contentment with their current lifestyle. They don't feel the need to go out and party or socialize because they are saving their love for someone special. The lyrics overall convey a sense of satisfaction with being with oneself and a strong sense of commitment to a specific person.
