Burning Streets
(hey, hey,
check it out)
Sun goes down behind the brick and stone
Asphalt's burning like a furnace bone
Everybody's stepping out to find some space
Running from the heat in this crowded place
(phew, it's hot)
There's a hot time,
a hot time in the city tonight!
(yeah yeah) We got the fire burning,
everything is bright!
Feel the temperature rising,
taking to the street
Dancing on the pavement
to the heavy beat!
Hydrants open, kids are laughing loud
Moving together in a heavy crowd
No breeze falling from the darkened sky
But we got the spirit keeping us high
(keep it going now)
There's a hot time,
a hot time in the city tonight!
(come on) We got the fire burning,
everything is bright! Feel the temperature rising,
taking to the street
Dancing on the pavement
to the heavy beat!
Oh,
the summer nights they never let you go
Just ride the wave and let the rhythm flow
(ahhhh, feel it now)
There's a hot time,
a hot time in the city tonight!
(sing it) We got the fire burning,
everything is bright!
Feel the temperature rising,
taking to the street
Dancing on the pavement
to the heavy beat! (heatwave!)
Hot time...
in the city... Yeah,
we're burning up
(phew,
too hot to handle)
