I met a shiek from Mozambique
Who led me to the Congo
He dreamed to go to Mexico
To sample a burrito



My temperature had risen again
It must have been a hundred and ten


Under the oaks I was tellin' some jokes
And thinkin' I had it made
Gettin' on with the folks and having some cokes
Coolin' off in the shade



My temperature had risen again
And it must have been a hundred and ten



I took a boat that couldn't float
To Rio De Janeiro
So with my SCUBA i swam to Cuba
But I'll be gone tomorrow



My temperature had risen again
and it must have been a hundred and ten
