HEAT IN THE ROOM

[Instrumental Intro]
[Driving percussion, pulsing bass slowly rising]
Oh-ah, oh-ah
Oh-ah, oh-ah

[Verse 1]
Half past two and you just walked in
Cold night air still on your skin
You leave your coat with a friend of mine
Catch my eye from the other side

I make my way through the crowded floor
You say, “What are we waiting for?”
Your fingers close around my wrist
Then the whole room moves like this

[Pre-Chorus]
I feel that kick beneath my feet
You pull me closer on the beat
The bass cuts out, you turn around
Everybody ready now

[Chorus]
We got heat, heat, heat in the room
Hands up high when the bass comes through
Oh-ah, oh-ah
I came alive when I found you

We got heat, heat, heat in the room
One more wave and we’re breaking loose
Oh-ah, oh-ah
I came alive when I found you

[Drop]
[Massive rolling bass, pounding afro percussion, bold synth hook]
Heat, heat
Heat in the room
Oh-ah, oh-ah
When the bass comes through

[Verse 2]
Your friends have joined us, mine are here
Somebody’s shouting in my ear
I miss the words but catch your laugh
You pull me in for a photograph

Blurred-out faces, your hand in the frame
Tomorrow we’ll do it all again
But right now you’re singing back to me
Louder than the melody

[Pre-Chorus]
I feel that kick beneath my feet
You pull me closer on the beat
The bass cuts out, you turn around
Everybody ready now

[Chorus]
We got heat, heat, heat in the room
Hands up high when the bass comes through
Oh-ah, oh-ah
I came alive when I found you

We got heat, heat, heat in the room
One more wave and we’re breaking loose
Oh-ah, oh-ah
I came alive when I found you

[Breakdown]
[Warm piano, distant crowd vocals, no kick]
Stay right here
I know that look
You’re waiting for the drums
I’m waiting too

[Build]
[Percussion rising, layered voices]
Oh-ah, oh-ah
We got heat in the room
Oh-ah, oh-ah

[One Beat Silence]

[Final Chorus and Drop]
We got heat, heat, heat in the room
Hands up high when the bass comes through
Oh-ah, oh-ah
I came alive when I found you

We got heat, heat, heat in the room
One more wave and we’re breaking loose
Oh-ah, oh-ah
I came alive when I found you

[Extended Instrumental Outro]
[Rolling afro drums, pulsing bass, fading vocal hook]
Heat, heat
Heat in the room
