Cold and sizzling!

I sold my soul

I sold my soul

For a sip at school

For a sip at school

A swimming pool

A swimming pool

Ice cold black fuel

Ice cold black fuel

I'll dive in

Swimming and drinking

And when my parents tell me to come in

I'll just ignore them and keep on drinking

Cola, cola

Fizzy cola

Yeah, you!

In the middle of the night, I get a craving and I wake up for you

Thirsty one looks stunned now

Confounded by the sizzle of the bubbles on the tongue

Sixty-six times underwater somersault

Pool cool, cooling by the side of the swimming pool

The rules don't apply to you 'cause you've got the buzz

Sixty-six times underwater somеrsault

Thirsty one looks stunned now

Confounded by thе sizzle of the bubbles on the tongue

Sixty-six times underwater somersault

Cut the queue, climb the scaffold to ride the flume first

Slap a bigger boy so hard he wakes up on the floor

Sixty-six times underwater somersault

Yeah, you!

In the middle of the night, I get a craving and I wake up for you

My God, my God

Why hast thou forsaken me?

My God, my God

Why hast thou forsaken me?

Yeah, you!

In the middle of the night, I get a craving and I wake up for you
