Madness Lyrics for Song: White Heat
 Lyrics for Album: Mad Not Mad [1985]
 
 
 
 16139>Down between the sunbeams the moneylenders chat
 
 Hiding in the shade outside a council flat
 
 Kids in the lift looking for things to throw
 
 
 
 And practising their aim on the heads below
 
 They make their apologies with the quickness of their feet
 
 Then lost in the heat haze that shimmers across the street
 
 
 
 Underfoot the pavement is melting
 
 Crumbling for the luckiest girl
 
 The whole world is melting.
 
 
 
 (White white heat)
 
 I'm still not in until a week next Wednesday
 
 I'm holidaying on the roof ©til the big bad wolf goes away
 
 
 
 In the street the pavement is melting
 
 Crumbling for the luckiest girl
 
 The whole world is melting.
 
 
 
 White heat turns the street upside down.
 
 
 
 Down between the sunbeams the debt collectors chat, chat, chat, chat,
 
 Hiding in the shade outside a council flat
 
 By the hairs on my chinny chin chin
 
 I shall not let you in.
 
 
 
 In the street the pavement is melting
 
 Crumbling for the luckiest girl
 
 The whole world is melting.
 
 
 
 (For the luckiest girl in all the world)
 
 (White, white heat)
