Hotter And Hotter
Rollins Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm running hot
I'm running hotter and hotter and hotter
As the years go by I can't deny the flame that burns inside me
Many times I wonder why I still act the same way
Something burning inside, I get hotter and hotter
Got green lights standing in my way
To standing around being abused
I'm already gone when you turn your head
Don't point your finger of blame
You see me burning like the sun in your eyes
And you want to slow down but I just have to fly
I'm hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter as the days go on, man
Hotter and hotter
As the days go on
Year after year after year after year
I'm on fire
You can't stop me
No need, no need to ever burn out. I'm scorching and torching no time for front porching.
Hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter... and hotter
Hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter
The days go on and the years go by and I'm hotter and hotter and flying on by
Better looking less of same I'm on my way to up the road to the next thing
You see me burning hotter and hotter and the years go by
You wonder to yourself how come that man hasn't burned out
Don't ask me why
Got green lights in front of me
Getting hotter and hotter you see
Hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter and hotter...oh yea
Hotter and hotter and hotte and hotter and hotter you see
Hotter and hotter and hotte and hotter and hotter you see
Gasoline for breakfast, Napalm for lunch
Hotter and hotter and hotte and hotter and hotter... yea ... yea ... yea
The Rollins Band's "Hotter And Hotter" is a song about a man who can't deny the fire that burns inside him. He acknowledges that as the years go by, he's getting "hotter and hotter" and that something inside him is burning, and he wonders why he still acts the same way. He refuses to stand around being abused and is already gone when you turn your head. He's burning like the sun in your eyes and you want to slow down, but he just has to fly. He notes that there is no need to ever burn out; instead, he is scorching and torching and has no time for front porching.
The song is about being on fire, both literally and metaphorically. The lyrics paint a picture of a man who is passionate, unstoppable, and refuses to slow down. The use of imagery, such as "gasoline for breakfast" and "napalm for lunch," underscores the intensity of the fire burning inside him. The repeated refrain of "hotter and hotter" in the chorus emphasizes the increasing intensity of his passion and the heat of the fire within him.
Overall, "Hotter And Hotter" is a powerful and intense song that celebrates the fire and passion that burn inside us all. It encourages us to embrace our inner fire and refuse to be held back by others or by our own self-doubts.
