Long Hot Summer
Written By: Mirander Cooper, Brian Higgins, Tim 'Rolf' Larcombe, Shawn Lee, Lisa Cowling, Giselle Sommerville, Myra Boyle

I know you like to wear my dressing gown when I'm not there
I guess you like it in my shoes
Just cause you drive a Maserati and the ladies stare
Don't mean you'll go as fast as I do

I know it's summer in the city
And the sun is high
But you could play it cool again
'Cos I have 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 out of my car
'Cos 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 climb down?

If you wanna get fresh, then take a cold shower
Put you back on ice 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've 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 back home?

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

('Cos I, I might be)
(So why do you fight me?)
('Cos I, I might be)
(So why do you fight me?)

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
(Ba ba ba)
Drinking pink champagne it's easy
(Ba ba ba)
Turn the heat too high
(Ba ba ba)
It's what I wanted
(Ba ba ba)
But I just can't lie, now I'm queasy
(Ba ba ba)
(Ba ba ba)
