The song title refers to a fictional aphrodisiac, which is presented in the accompanying video as a steaming love potion. The lyrics tell the tale of Loc's initially unsuccessful attempts to attract women. At the suggestion of a barman, he plies his intended with "that medina thing". He first tests the drink on his dog, who immediately latches onto his leg and attempts to mate with him. Loc's subsequent encounters with women also backfire on him; first he attracts a transgender woman,[2] and then a woman intent on marriage from the very first date (recounting his experiences on the game show Love Connection).

After the song became popular, several different mixed drinks were created and named "Funky Cold Medina".[3] Also, Loc himself sang a parody of this song at the Epcot animatronic show, Food Rocks. In this show, he portrayed Fud Wrapper, a singing food wrapper, and sang "Always Read the Wrapper".
