[Verse]
EmBorn for trouble; poised for action
Ready to spring at a moment's notice
GNerves like a trigger waiting to be pulled
Covered with sweat; it ain't niiEmiiice
EmHelp me please I'm burning up
I got this fire in my heart
GWon't let me sleep; can't concentrate
Even when it's cold, I'm dripping, dripping Emsweeeaaat
EmRivers running down my back
Makes me slippery, like a fish
GIf I don't stop, I might drown I might drown
Falling, falling down, down, down, down, Emdooowwwn
[Chorus]
GThe cool boys bit the dust
EmThey couldn't take the pressure
CThe cool girls got knocked up
GThey only Emwanted to have Dfun
(GWhere did they Emgo-wDhoa?)
DThey fell in love and suffer
(GWhere did they Emgo-wDhoa?)
DThey picked up guns and hammers
(GWhere did they Emgo-wDhoa?)
DWithout friction, there's no heat
DWithout heat, there can't be fire
DWithout fire, there's no desire
DYou're making me hot, hot, hot, haaawwwt! EmYeah!
[Verse]
EmTake my baby, Saturday night
a hundred and ten; it's all right
GClose the door to my little room
Starting to sweat; our fun starts Emsooooon
EmPrincipal caught me after school
Gave me hell; he called me a fool
GPointed his finger at my face
Started to sweat, started to sweat
I started to sweat all over the Emplaaaaace
EmWar breaks out throughout the land
Dodging bullets in the sand
GEnemy's getting much too close
GSun beats down on the back of my neck
GFingers are twichin'; covered with sweat
GCovered with sweat, covered with sweat
Covered, covered, covered with Emsweeeaaat
[Chorus]
GThe cool boys bit the dust
EmThey couldn't take the pressure
CThe cool girls got knocked up
GThey only Emwanted to have Dfun
(GWhere did they Emgo-wDhoa?)
DThey fell in love and suffer
(GWhere did they Emgo-wDhoa?)
DThey picked up guns and hammers
(GWhere did they Emgo-wDhoa?)
DWithout friction, there's no heat
DWithout heat, there can't be fire
DWithout fire, there's no desire
DYou're making me hot, hot, hot, hot! EmYeeeoow!
[Chorus]
GThe cool boys bit the dust
EmThey couldn't take the pressure
CThe cool girls got knocked up

DWithout friction, there's no heat
DWithout heat, there can't be fire
DWithout fire, there's no desire

[Verse]

Born for trouble; poised for action

Ready to spring at a moment's notice

Nerves like a trigger waiting to be pulled

Covered with sweat; it ain't niiiiice

Help me please I'm burning up

I got this fire in my heart

Won't let me sleep; can't concentrate

Even when it's cold, I'm dripping, dripping sweeeaaat

Rivers running down my back

Makes me slippery, like a fish

If I don't stop, I might drown I might drown

Falling, falling down, down, down, down, dooowwwn

[Chorus]

The cool boys bit the dust

They couldn't take the pressure

The cool girls got knocked up

G Em D

They only wanted to have fun

G Em D

(Where did they go-whoa?)

They fell in love and suffer

G Em D

(Where did they go-whoa?)

They picked up guns and hammers

G Em D

(Where did they go-whoa?)

Without friction, there's no heat

Without heat, there can't be fire

Without fire, there's no desire

D Em

You're making me hot, hot, hot, haaawwwt! Yeah!

[Verse]

Take my baby, Saturday night

a hundred and ten; it's all right

Close the door to my little room

Starting to sweat; our fun starts sooooon

Principal caught me after school

Gave me hell; he called me a fool

Pointed his finger at my face

Started to sweat, started to sweat

I started to sweat all over the plaaaaace

War breaks out throughout the land

Dodging bullets in the sand

Enemy's getting much too close

Sun beats down on the back of my neck

Fingers are twichin'; covered with sweat

Covered with sweat, covered with sweat

Covered, covered, covered with sweeeaaat

[Chorus]

The cool boys bit the dust

They couldn't take the pressure

The cool girls got knocked up

Without friction, there's no heat

Without heat, there can't be fire

Without fire, there's no desire

The cool boys bit the dust

They couldn't take the pressure

The cool girls got knocked up

You're making me, you're makin' me hot, hot, hot, hot! Yaaaay!

Making me hot, making me hot, making me hot...
