lyrics

I was on the prowl for a mistress
To take some of the chill off my winters
Took you home coz you looked cheap and easy
I didn’t know how much you would please me

You are the one who makes my blood bubble
But if I fall in you I'll be in hot trouble
You would never let me feel cold
But I fear that you're going to vapourise my soul

You're too hot to be an economiser
And you're too cool to be a superheater, baby
First you get wet, and then you get steamy
And that's why I call you my boiler lady
Oooh, I change state in you
Oooh, that's why I call you my boiler lady

For someone whose temperature doesn't change
Your turbulent behaviour seems strange
When you get on your Rankine cycle
You transform into a raging psycho

You're too hot to be an economiser
And you're too cool to be a superheater, baby
First you get wet, and then you get steamy
And that's why I call you my boiler lady
Oooh, fluid in your tubes
Oooh, that's why I call you my boiler lady

Your fuel bills are way through the roof
And you're fussy about what I put in you
If I penetrate you with hard water
We're gunna end up with a limescale daughter

You're high maintenance to the max
And you're always blowing shit out your stack
All that coal has made your heart black
And I need a whole room for you, you're so fat

Boiler lady, I found a new lover
She comes with a sign that says "do not cover"
I can turn her on with the flick of a switch
So good riddance to you, you carbon spewing bitch

You're too hot to be an economiser
And you're too cool to be a superheater, baby
First you get wet, and then you get steamy
And that's why I call you my boiler lady
Oooh, it's not me, it's you
Oooh, goodbye my darling boiler lady
