The Heat Is On

The Heat Is On - Rita Hayworth

Written by：Washington/Lee

She taught school in kansas city she was cold and rather drab

So at all the local parties she was not the one they'd grab

But she read a book and then came the transformation

She announced one night to people's consternation

The heat is on the heat is on

Ya better not get near my lips tonight

I got a kiss to light the flame

And if you touch my lips you might ignite

And you would have yourself to blame

The heat is on the heat is on

I wanna know if men are men or mice

Don't wanna wither on the bough

I might have bored the evening cold as as ice

But I'm a forest fire now

I got an awful lot of oats that haven't been sewn

They might start a chain reaction and I might explode

The heat is on the heat is on

You're gonna hear the sirens howl tonight

You're gonna see the building bounce

Because the lady's on the prowl tonight

And it behoves me to announce

The heat is on

Let me stipulate that my defences are down

I'm spontaneous combustion in a satin gown

The heat is on the heat is on

You're gonna hear the sirens howl tonight

You're gonna see the building bounce

Because the lady's on the prowl tonight

And it behoves me to announce

That the heat is on
