[Verse 1]
Aw, when you touch there, honey
Makes my blood perspire
You got my body flaming
Like a California fire
Pulsing, pounding, pushing
No longer in control
Heatwave in my brain
Smolder in my soul

[Chorus]
You got me workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
I've been playing all night long
Time I was gettin' home
But I've got no place to get

[Verse 2]
Spontaneous combustion
Scientific fact
But your approach to friction
An unnatural act
Bells I hear ain't fire drills
I hope you understand
It's a bona fide five alarmer
A fly is melting in my hand

[Chorus]
You got me workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
I've been playing all night long
Time I was gettin' home
But I've got no place to get

[Post-Chorus]
Workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
Yeah, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I've been playing all night long
'Bout time I was gettin' home
But I've, ooh

[Verse 3]
Dante's famed inferno
Was a trip to hell and back
But you and a bottle in a cheap hotel screams pyromaniac
Bandages come off today
Really feeling sick
The hardest part's explainin'
All those blisters on my nose

[Chorus]
Workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
I've been playing all night long
Time I was gettin' home
But I've got no place to get

[Post-Chorus]
Workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat

[Chorus]
I've been playing all night long
'Bout time I was gettin' home
But I've, ooh

[Post-Chorus]
Workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
Workin' up a sweat
