Thrill of the Grill - Kim Carnes

The Thrill Of The Grill

(Kim Carnes)

Works real hard in an all night cafe

Says she loves her job

Wouldn't have it any other way

Then he walks in wearin' cheap cologne

She said I'll take off early

If you'll take me home

Come on honey say you will

Jump on into my Coupe De Ville

There's a Mexico sunset standing still

Let's fall in love to the thrill of the grill

His hair was slick but he was slicker

His touch was radioactive

And it made her shiver

When he emptied his pockets

They were filled with champagne

He held out his hand

As he called out her name

Come on honey say you will

Jump on into my Coupe De Ville

There's a Mexico sunset standing still

Let's fall in love to the thrill of the grill

Sideways--oh my God I'm sideways

Half-crazed--dizzy dazed and waylayed

The boss said Phillis have you gone mad

You're the best short order

That I ever had

Don't throw it all away

On a one night fling

Don't be a fool for a foolish thing

So she tore off her apron

Threw down the pan

She said buzz it boss

You just don't understand

I've waited all my life

To feel the thrill

To be carried away

By the thrill of the grill

So come on honey yes I will

I'll jump on into your Coupe De Ville

There's a Mexico sunset standing still

Let's fall in love to the thrill of the grill
