The song opens with a simple keyboard hook before a prominent bass guitar kicks in, along with rhythm guitar and live drums. The song consists of two verses and several repeats of the chorus. Also featured is a keyboard solo in the bridge. The song opened Prince's Dirty Mind tour. The B-side of the track was the controversial Dirty Mind ode to oral sex "Head".
