What makes it hot?

Anthony “Tappy” Paull

If you work on your engine and paint your car it’s hot,

But if you leave everything standard and unclean it’s not,

 

A hot girl will spend money on make up and gym to fit in tight dresses,

But other women totally happy to be as they are as God blesses,

 

The sun shinning down constantly on the sand,

Can make your feet hot do you understand,

 

But a night can be hot as an adjective too,

Because of what young boys and girls try to do,

 

The new band in town has a new song that’s hot,

With songs from a new album now six on the trot,

 

When with sickness you struggle your temperature hot,

You must call in the Doctor he’ll give you an antibiotic shot,

 

If you go on a hot date is the temperature warm,

Or your youthful arousal and wet dreams the norm,

 

So descriptive of appearance or intentions or sound,

Or maybe your feeling the heat from the ground,

 

An adjective the word hot can certainly be,

But it’s meaning seems to keep changing to me,
