92°

[Sample: "It Came from Outer Space" (1953)]

Did you know that more murders are committed at ninety-two degrees Fahrenheit than any other temperature? I read an article once

Lower temperatures, people are easy-going. Over ninety-two, it's too hot to move

But just ninety-two, people get irritable!

[Verse 1]

The day drags by like a wounded animal

The approaching disease, ninety-two degrees

The blood in our veins and the brains in our head

The approaching unease, ninety-two degrees

[Verse 2]

Long ago in the headlines, they noticed it too

But too late for the loved ones, and nearly for you

[Verse 3]

Shaky lines on the horizon

Snaky thoughts invade each person

Watch the red line creeping upwards

Watch the sanity line weaken

The volcanic depths of Hades' ocean

Bubble under, these crazed eruptions

It wriggles and writhes and bites within

Just below the sweating skin

[Verse 4]

I wondered when this would happen again

Now I watch the red line, reach that number again

The blood in our veins and the brains in our head

[Chorus]

Drink the water with jagged glass

Eat the cactus with bleeding mouth

Not ninety-one or ninety-three

But ninety-two Fahrenheit degrees

Drink the water with jagged glass

Eat the cactus with bleeding mouth

Not ninety-one or ninety-three

But ninety-two Fahrenheit degrees

[Verse 5]

Shaky lines on the horizon

Snaky thoughts invade each person

[Chorus]

Not ninety-one or ninety-three

But ninety-two Fahrenheit degrees
