Another scorcing summer's day
Melting all the tarmac streets away
Beneat my feet, the heat is growing stronger
No mercy from the burning sun
Beads of perspiration on my face
Humidity, the air so heavy
Cool night water
So darn hot the sky's on fire
Too darn hot to feel desire
It's so darn hot the birds won't sing
Too darn hot for anything
Lazy like a winter fly
Hear the churchbell ringing the hour
A summer storm would certainly, certainly relieve me
Taking one more freezing shower
Trying to keep my mind alive
Some ice cold Russian tea for inspiration
Cool night water
So darn hot the sky's on fire
Too darn hot to feel desire
It's so darn hot the birds won't sing
Too darn hot for anything
I wish that I could swim,
God, I wish that I could swim
In cood night water
In cool night water
