Heatwave

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The hot ground burns the soles of my feet Above, the sky is turnin' red Pray that there will be a cool change Before we all go up in flames [Pre-Chorus] This is a desert land Where the sun burns on the sand Will it ever rain? The weatherman says it's getting hotter But he don't need to tell me what I already know [Chorus] And you wait, and you wait, and you wait This is a heatwave 'Cause you can't get away, get away This is a heatwave This is a heatwave This is a heatwave, woah [Verse 2] Dark clouds threatening to break down Faces hiding in the shade Lightening twisted up like wire Minor birds falling out of the sky A nation meltin' in the sun [Pre-Chorus] This is a desert land Where the sun burns on the sand Will it ever rain? The weatherman says it's getting hotter But he don't need to tell me what I already know [Chorus 2] And you wait, and you wait, and you wait This is a heatwave 'Cause you can't get away, get away This is a heatwave [Post-Chorus] A heatwave A heatwave A heatwave A heatwave [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] I'm not waiting for the heat to drop (yeah!) And I'm not waiting for the bomb to drop (yeah!) Times up now, too late, what have you got? [Chorus 3] And you wait, and you wait, and you wait This is a heatwave 'Cause you can't get away, get away This is a heatwave And you wait, and you wait, and you wait This is a heatwave 'Cause you can't get away, get away [Outro] This is a heatwave This is a heatwave This is a heatwave, woah
