Funk band from the song "The Cocoa Boys" by Prince, recorded as a demo on September 14, 1986. The recording was shelved and not released officially until 2020 on the expanded reissue of Sign o' the Times.

Over on the east side across the river

There was a band called The Cocoa Boys

The leader was a brother named Frankie

He was the ladies pride and joy, yes he was


Now Frankie had a brother named Joe

And they shared the high-part harmonies

Joe played the bass, Frankie played guitar

And people, I mean they was too funky
