"Heat Of The Night" as written by Claus Norreen and Soren Rasted....
[Chorus]
In the heat of the night,
We are having a fiesta,
We dance until siesta,
When the sun comes alive.
In the heat of the night,
We are having a fiesta,
Let's dance until siesta,
When the sun comes alive.
Oh,
I've been waiting for summertime to come
Welcome beaches, lying in the sun
Music playing, people everywhere
No need to worry, the tequila is here
And when the sun goes down we're having fun,
'Cause there will be a party going on
[Chorus]
Heat of the night.
Heat of the night.
Life is easy, on a holiday
Only problems seem so far away,
The bar is open, and everybody sings,
"Excuse me senorita, for you free drinks"
And when the sun goes down we're having fun,
'Cause there will be a party going on.
[Chorus]
Heat of the night.
'Cause when the sun goes down we're having fun,
And there will be a party going on.
In the heat of the night,
Oh,
We are having a fiesta,
In the heat of the night,
Night,
We are having a fiesta,
"Let's swing it copa de dance!"
"Hola senorita, let's go to the beach."
[Chorus]
Heat of the night.
Heat of the night.
In the heat of the night,
We are having a fiesta,
We dance until siesta,
When the sun comes alive.
In the heat of the night,
We are having a fiesta,
Let's dance until siesta,
When the sun comes alive.
Oh,
I've been waiting for summertime to come
Welcome beaches, lying in the sun
Music playing, people everywhere
No need to worry, the tequila is here
And when the sun goes down we're having fun,
'Cause there will be a party going on
[Chorus]
Heat of the night.
Heat of the night.
Life is easy, on a holiday
Only problems seem so far away,
The bar is open, and everybody sings,
"Excuse me senorita, for you free drinks"
And when the sun goes down we're having fun,
'Cause there will be a party going on.
[Chorus]
Heat of the night.
'Cause when the sun goes down we're having fun,
And there will be a party going on.
In the heat of the night,
Oh,
We are having a fiesta,
In the heat of the night,
Night,
We are having a fiesta,
"Let's swing it copa de dance!"
"Hola senorita, let's go to the beach."
[Chorus]
Heat of the night.
Heat of the night.

mainly, it's the whole "Dance until siesta - when the sun comes alive" line. The second part makes me think of morning -- the sun returns from it's break. but the siesta happens after the mid-day meal. Originally I was just thinking that 'siesta" and 'fiesta' were just too good of a rhyme to miss but possibly there's some veiled meaning here... anyone with thoughts on this?
