As a nightclub DJ and enthusiastic dancer, I was guilty of this on many occasions. This song takes a dance music cliché to its logical, steamy conclusion.
Workin’ Up a Sweat © Andy Sloan
You’ve got me workin up a sweat, out here on the dancefloor, tonight
You’ve got me workin up a sweat, out here tonight
So hot and sweaty
I think I’m ready
To win a wet T-shirt contest
When I’m excited
I just can’t fight it
It’s disgusting babe, you can be honest
I really hate it when I get this way, I wish the sweat would go away…
my dancin suit’s ruined
Don’t mean to raise a stink or make you think that I am sorely out of shape…
But there’s nothin doin
I’m covered in grit, I’m covered in grunge,
I wanna take the Nestea plunge!
You’ve got me workin up a sweat, out here on the dancefloor, tonight
You’ve got me workin up a sweat, out here tonight
So hot and stinkin
What was I thinkin
The sweat is drippin off my nose
I smell so rotten
Shoulda worn cotton
Cuz it’s tough to get this stench out of dry-clean clothes
Big blue veins are bulging in my forehead and I’m turnin red
Everyone’s starin at me
There’s no turnin back from a heart attack it looks like I will end up dead
…at least I’ll die happy
I’m the sweatiest man at the discotheque
They hung an air fresh’ner round my neck!
You got me so hot I’m up in flames
Dump that Gatorade on me, pretend I won the game
I shoulda brought a towel
At least some sweatbands
I’m gettin so hot, it’s like I’m wearin sweatpants
Smell like a locker room
I gotta stop this soon
I’m gettin so hot, burned through my antiperspirant
I just can’t stand it, somebody help me please,
I’m gonna drink some antifreeze
