98.6 degrees in the shade
we’re inside, under the weather
sweat running down our necks and thighs
like our bodies are melting together
Temperature’s Rising
Temperature’s Rising
Temperature’s Rising
Cool me down
Cool me down
the gutters outside are pools of garbage and mud
roiling with clouds of mosquitoes
thermometer’s gorged with a fevered blood
like a hypodermic needle
Temperature’s Rising
Temperature’s Rising
Temperature’s Rising
Cool me down
Cool me down
[Instrumental]
Bridge:
In the still air, in the silence
desire grows like the threat of violence
like a mirage as you watch the heat
rising in twisted waves from the street
Spread out like a victim on those sweaty sheets
I want you so bad that I hate you
I love you so much I want to brutalize you
it’s only human nature
Temperature’s Rising
Temperature’s Rising
Temperature’s Rising
Cool me down
Cool me down
Temperature’s Rising Cool me down
Temperature’s Rising Cool me down
Temperature’s Rising Cool me down
Temperature’s Rising Cool me down
Temperature’s Rising Cool me down
Temperature’s Rising Cool me down
