Long Hot Summer

My baby likes to wear my dress and go when I'm not there
I guess you like it in my shoes
Just 'cause you drive a Maserati and the radio's there
Don't mean you go as fast as I do
I know it's summer in the city and the sun is high
But you could play it cooler again
'Cause I've seen you disco dancing with your pants on fire
We need a little tropical rain

So baby, baby
Watch the needle when you're heading south
You drive me crazy
Just remember you could burn me out
Slow it down

It's been a long, hot summer
And it's ninety-five degrees in the shade
(Ba-ba-ba)
It's only Sunday morning
And I need that Friday feeling again
(Ba-ba-ba)
You put me in a fever fifty stories high
And suddenly I'm freezing and I don't know why
It's been a long, hot summer
And I'm shaking like a cool lemonade

If you wanna get fresh, get outta my car
'Cause the boys are due, we're going too fast
I'm taking my time now

If you wanna fly high, keep out of the sun
When your fingers start to burn, it's no fun
So why don't you calm down?
If you wanna get fresh, take a cold shower
Put your back on that before you turn sour
Nobody can fool me

I've got a pain in my head and dust in my eyes
Every time I feel the temperature rise
I need you to cool me

I partied out of house and home
So baby, if you fight me, how you gonna like me?
Running down that Old Kent Road
So think before you bite me, how you gonna get me?

It's been a long, hot summer
And it's ninety-five degrees in the shade
(Ba-ba-ba)
It's only Sunday morning
And I need that Friday feeling again
(Ba-ba-ba)
You put me in a fever fifty stories high
And suddenly I'm freezing and I don't know why
It's been a long, hot summer
And I'm shaking like a cool lemonade

A little late to take it slow
But I couldn't wait to party
Like a cannonball, got what I wanted
Now I've seen it all, so find me
I've ricocheted around the world
Drinking champagne, it's easy
Turns the heat too high, it's what I wanted
But I just can't lie, now I'm queasy
