As Thursday dawns and traffic thrums,
the pulse of life is rising.
The temperature is mild for now,
but highs I am despising.
I'll enjoy the ride and abide
within my domain bettin',
That if you're out by noon today,
you really will be sweatin'.
So I'll drink my fluids and try
to keep myself away from trouble,
'Cause when the sun is high today,
the tar will start to bubble.
