The Heat Is On

"THE HEAT IS ON" [Verse 1] The heat is on, and on, and on, and on Sun don't blink, and the shade is gone Dog's flat out on the kitchen floor Can't feel a breeze from an open door (mmm, on and on) [Verse 2] A tall blonde shiny with the heat, sweating in my hand That cold ale's calling out to me, I don't put up much of a stand Goes down easy, cools me some But it don't beat back where that sun's from (no it don't, no it don't) [Chorus] The heat is on, and on, and on, and on Stickin' to my shirt since dawn Fan just movin' hot air 'round Nothin' cold left to be found On and on and on and on... [Bridge — slower, dreamlike, gusts of atmosphere] I'm dreaming of a whiteout, a northeaster kind of dream Gusts that howl and drifts stacked up, blowing through the Restigoosh, it seems A wall of snow I'd run and throw myself right in Bury me cold, Lord, let the winter win (let it win... let it win...) [Verse 3 — snap back to heat, weary] But here I am, still drippin' still Watchin' shadows crawl up Route 1-3-4 Prayin' for a cloud, prayin' for a chill Nothin' comin', nothin' more (on and on) [Final Chorus — bigger, resigned] The heat is on, and on, and on, and on Same old sun, it just goes on I'll take that ale, I'll take that dream Anything to cool this steam On and on and on and on On and on and on and on... [Outro — spoken, dry, half-laughing] (Yeah... somebody call that nor'easter for me, would ya) leave a message . but no im just kidding on and on and on and so On !! I'l have anohter ale and another on and on .... {Property Of TENBREATHSUN © }
