As Thousands Cheer movie - Heat Wave lyrics

rate me

<br>

A heat wave blew right into town last week<br>

She came from the island of Martinique<br>

The can-can she dances will make you fry<br>

The can-can is really the reason why<br>

<br>

We're having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave<br>

The temp'rature's rising, it isn't surprising<br>

She certainly can can-can<br>

<br>

She started the heat wave by letting her seat wave<br>

And in such a way that the customers say that<br>

She certainly can can-can<br>

<br>

Gee<br>

Her anatomy<br>

Made the mercury<br>

Jump to ninety-three<br>

Yes, sir!<br>

<br>

We're having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave<br>

The way that she moves that thermometer proves that<br>

She certainly can can-can<br>

<br>

[patter:]<br>

It's so hot the weather man will tell you a record's been made<br>

It's so hot a coat of tan will cover your face in the shade<br>

It's so hot the coldest maiden feels just as warm as a bride<br>

It's so hot a chicken laid an egg on the street and it fried<br>

<br>

[alternate lines:]<br>

She started the heat wave by letting her feet wave<br>

<br>

It's so hot a hefty maiden lost twenty pounds from each side<br>

<br>
