It’s Getting Hot In Here
(Eric Kornfeld/Bette Sussman)
SOPH
MY LIFE IS JUST A PURPLE FEATHER BOA
A G-STRING AND SOME TASTEFUL NUDITY
THEN ONE DAY WARDROBE SAID,
HEY, PUT THIS ON YOUR HEAD
IT’S ONLY HALF THE SIZE OF TENNESSEE
I’VE BEEN AROUND SINCE VEGAS WAS INVENTED
AND I’VE WORN EVERY COSTUME THAT THEY GOT
THOUGH SOME OF THEM WERE LARGE –
THIS THING’S A FUCKIN’ BARGE
AND HAVE I MENTIONED ”“ HOLY SHIT, IT’S HOT!
HERE I AM NO NEED TO SEARCH
UP HERE ON MY FEATHERED PERCH
SWEATIN’ LIKE A WHORE IN CHURCH
BOY, IT’S HOT IN HERE
AIR’S SO THICK I CANNOT BREATHE
HOTTER THAN TEL AVIV
(IF) I DROP DEAD, YOU BETTER GRIEVE
OY, IT’S HOT IN HERE
