Boiler, boiler
Boiler, boiler
Boiler, boiler
Boiler, boiler

Got high heel shoes and a leopard skin slags
PVC and mack over her back
Bright red lips, a right to smack
If you forget yourself, they'll smack you back

I don't care
You don't care

Boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler

I don't care
You don't care

She's got hips that tease and it just can't be
She tries so hard to mesmerize me
Her legs are so long so you all can't see
The way she talks, it's in the wrong key

I don't know
You don't know

Boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler

I don't know
You don't know

She's done and tried it all before
There's no solution anymore

Boiler, boiler
Boiler, boiler
Boiler, boiler

Her ass, it's arrived and something's wrong
And to find it out won't take you long
She tries to make you think she's smart
To talk you down and break your heart

I don't see
You don't see

Boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler

I don't see
You don't see

Boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler

I don't care
You don't care

Boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler




B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler
B-b-b-b-boiler, boiler
