Gutterball - Turn Down the Heat lyrics

Alley cat's crying out the back door Moisture is collecting on the leaves Old widow Johnson is waiting by the window She never likes to give before she receives I hear that in Moscow they're freezing Crops are dying in the fields But out here everybody wishes they were naked These rags can't hide what they don't want to conceal I wish someone would turn down the heat I wish someone would turn down the heat If you're listening up above in the holy name of love I wish someone would turn down the heat I wish I went down on the Titanic To die amidst the ice and the cold I wish I went down on anything That wasn't burning right down through my soul My baby fell asleep on the couch again last night Face down in a pool of lemonade So I took a walk down by the old graveyard To find a friend who just loves the shade
