You've got us hanging off your every word
Patiently waiting a sign
One minute we can expect the absurd
Next minute everything's fine
So unpredictable no reason nor rhyme
Worse than the hours in a day
We seem to remember a well-balanced time
Or was it always this way?
(Hot to cold, too hot to hold)
(Hot to cold, too hot to hold)
(Too hot to)
Half a degree either way unconcerned
You shed no wake of relief
And plagued by a fear of your high winds of change
Day to night's difference is brief
Erratic shifts in your moods have us all
Under a high pressure sway
Showering us constantly playing your game
We have no choice but to play
(Hot to cold, too hot to hold)
(Hot to cold, too hot to hold)
(Too hot to)
(Hot to cold, too hot to hold)
(Hot to cold, too hot to hold)
Now
(Hot to cold, too hot to hold)
(Hot to cold, too hot to hold)
(Hot to cold)
