The Global Warming Blues

Well I’ve got the blues
I’ve just heard the news 
That the earth is getting warmer by the day
Yet I just get a chill
From the girl that makes me thrill
For when it comes to loving she won’t play

I’ve got the global blues
the global warming blues
Just when I’m in the grove,
When I try to make a move
Well my baby leaves me shivering in my shoes

When my passion starts to rise
It comes as no surprise,
that I can’t find a way to melt her heart
Though she’s pretty and she’s neat,
Just to hold her is a treat
Somehow when it comes to loving she wont start

I’ve got the global blues
the global warming blues
Yes my babies really nice
 but she has a heart of ice
So I just can’t believe the global news

Yet she really is a star,
The very best I’ve seen by far
I always thought for me that she is just right
Whenever I get bold,
She instantly turns cold
I just can’t seem to raise her Fahrenheit

Yes Man

I’ve got the global blues 
the global warming blues
For though I am forever soaked with sweat,
I’ve got the global blues 
the global warming blues
There simply is no loving I can get
 
I don’t get no thrill, 
Just an ice cold chill
When I think things might get up beat
My baby plays it cool
I’m left to feel a fool
So someone tell me how to raise the heat

I’ve got the global blues
The global warming blues
Science simply can’t have got it right,
I’ve got the global warming blues
The global warming blues
My baby makes me shiver every night

Man that’s mighty cold 

This needs a tune
