CHORUS
38 degrees and rising
What I wouldn’t give for a vending machine
38 degrees and rising
Trade a coke for my Mercedes Benz
38 degrees and rising
Sell my soul for a cup of tea
Feel my underwear it’s soaking
What do you expect when it’s 38 degrees?

VERSE
The highway’s meltin’, I’m going nowhere
Queuing with my fellow automobilians
We’re dripping outside, we’re sweating inside
Getting frustrated the air con’s on overdrive
Is that a breeze, please help me please
I’m on my knees it’s 38 degrees

CHORUS

VERSE
Radio FM, today’s a hot one
Hey man, are you sure - you don’t say
Jingle’s playing ‘sip a reef or two’
Wish I could but I’m being barbecued
My sun block’s on, sf01, it’s nearly gone
Ooh what can I do?

CHORUS
38 degrees and rising
What I wouldn’t give for a vending machine
38 degrees and rising
Trade a coke for my Mercedes Benz


SOLO

CHORUS
38 degrees and rising
What I wouldn’t give for a vending machine
38 degrees and rising
Trade a coke for my Mercedes Benz
38 degrees and rising
What do you expect when it’s 38 degrees?
38 degrees, 38 degrees …

CHORUS
38 degrees and rising
What I wouldn’t give for a vending machine
38 degrees and rising
Trade a coke for my Mercedes Benz
38 degrees and rising
Sell my soul for a cup of tea

What do you expect when it’s 38 degrees?
