A heat wave blew into town last week
She came from the island of martinique
The "can-can", she dances will make you fry
The "can-can" is really the reason why
We're having a heat wave,
A tropical heat wave,
The temperature's rising,
It isn't surprising,
She certainly can "can-can".
She started a heat wave
By letting her feat wave
In such a way that
The customers say that
She certainly can "can-can".
Gee, her anatomy
Makes the mercury
Jump up to ninety-three.
We're having a heat wave,
A tropical heat wave,
The way that she moves
That thermometer proves
That she certainly can "can-can".
It's so hot, weatherman will tell you
A record's been made
It's so hot, a coat of tan
Will cover your face in the shade
It's so hot, the coldest maiden
Feel just as warm as the bride
It's so hot, a chicken laid an egg on street
And it fried.

It's hot, man.
We're having a heat wave,
A tropical heat wave,
The way that she moves
That thermometer proves
That she certainly can "can-can".
She certainly can "can-can".
She certainly can "can-can".
