Music by Paul McCartney, Lyrics by Tim Rice
As recorded by Elaine Paige
HOT AS SUN HE WAS,
HOT AS SUN BECAUSE
HE KNEW HE HAD IT MADE.
THE WOMEN ALL RUSHED TO JOIN HIS QUEUE,
EVEN MEN DID TOO.
I THOUGHT HE OVERDID IT A SHADE.
COLD AS ICE I WAS,
COLD AS ICE BECAUSE
I'D GONE OUT ON A LIMB.
AND MY RESPONSIBILITY WAS TO SEE THAT HE
NOTICED THAT I HAD NOTICED HIM.
I WAS BITTER, I WAS SWEET,
MOVED LIKE LIGHTNING, DRAGGED MY FEET,
TOO COLD TO HANDLE.
USED MY HEAD, USED MY HEART,
ACTED DUMB 'CAUSE I AM SMART,
CASUAL AS A SANDAL - HEY, HEY.
HOT AS SUN IS COOL,
HOT AS SUN THE RULE,
ALWAYS PAYS DIVIDENDS.
JUST A SMALL TOUCH OF SOLAR HEAT
SO VERY HARD TO BEAT,
PRACTICAL PLAN THIS GIRL RECOMMENDS.
I WAS BITTER, I WAS WILD,
ACTED ADULT, PLAYED THE CHILD,
TOO COLD TO HANDLE.
USED MY HEAD, USED MY HEART,
ACTED DUMB 'CAUSE I AM SMART,
CASUAL AS A SANDAL - HEY, HEY.
HOT AS SUN WE ARE,
I WOULD GO AS FAR
TO SAY THAT TWO IS ONE.
AND I WOULD BET MY SANDALS NOW
JUST LIKE CHU-CHIN-CHOW.
THIS IS ONE SHOW THAT'S SURE GONNA RUN.
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA,
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA,
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA,
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA.
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA,
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA,
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA,
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA.
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA,
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA,
OO LA-LA-LA, OO LA-LA-LA,
OO LA-LA-LA, OO.
