Feeling the Heat

It's a scorcher, 96 degrees
In this great northern land of easy-speaking trees
I thought I left this in Texas
Right along with you and my prickly pear pet cactus

Do you feel it now, I'm feelin' the heat

Can we cool it down, 'cause I'm feelin' the heat
Blankets long gone, just the top sheet, with uncovered feet

Floating off the ground, 'cause I'm feelin' the heat
Five degrees warmer every inch you're closer to me

Come closer to me

Global kitchen's hot, tempers are flarin'
The pipeline hack was scarily daring
Just the start, or an intercontinental warning shot
An overcooked, armed-to-the-teeth Gordian knot

Do you feel it now, I'm feelin' the heat

Can we cool it down, 'cause I'm feelin' the heat
Blankets long gone, just the top sheet, with uncovered feet
Can we settle down, 'cause I'm feelin' the heat
Multipolar escalation, wearin' on me

Can we cool it down, 'cause I'm feelin' the heat

This is intense
It seems too much
A scorched-earth
Outlook is facing us

But listen to me
Hear my voice
Our future's open, a mission, a choice

It's only natural
To feel regret, to feel distress
But never forget to keep fighting for what's left
What's left
