Heatwave |
| A heat wave ride into town last week |
| She came from the island of Martini |
| The can-can she dances will make you fry |
| The can-can is really the reason why |
| We’re having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave |
| The temprature’s rising, it isn’t surprising |
| She certainly can, can-can |
| She started the heat wave by letting her seat wave |
| And in such a way that the customers say |
| That she certainly can, can-can |
| See her anatomy, made the mercury |
| Jump to ninety three, yes, sir |
| Were having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave |
| The way that she moves that thermometer proves |
| That she certainly can, can-can |
| It’s so hot the weather man will tell you |
| A record’s been made |
| It’s so hot a coat of tan will cover |
| Your face in a shade |
| It’s so hot the coldest maiden feel just |
| As warm as a bride |
| It’s so hot, a chicken laid an egg |
| On the streets and it’s fried |
| We’re having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave |
| The temprature’s rising, it isn’t surprising |
| She certainly can, can-can |
| She started the heat wave by letting her seat wave |
| And in such a way that the customers say |
| That she certainly can, can-can |
| See her anatomy, made that mercury |
| Jump to ninety three, yes sir, yeah, man |
| We’re having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave |
| The way that she moves that thermometer proves |
| That she certainly can, can-can |
