It’s Today Calling

We’ve never had a crowd this large before,
Hey, who turned up the heat in here?
Some caller on the line wants to speak with you,
They say they’ve been on hold for years,

It’s today calling, now that night’s falling,
Hate to interrupt,
But it’s the sky calling, time to quit stalling
Cause we’re burning up,
We’re burning up,

This is one hell of a party,
The fat cats are satisfied,
But a message just arrived for you and me,
It came in on the rising tide,

It’s today calling, now that night’s falling,
Hate to interrupt,
But it’s the sea calling, time to quit stalling
Cause we’re burning up,
We’re burning up,

The lights are bright, the music’s loud,
The party’s in high gear,
I hope no annoying guests show up
Who’ll ruin the atmosphere,

It’s today calling, time to quit stalling,
Hate to sound abrupt,
But it’s the Earth calling, time to go all in,
Cause we’re burning up,
We’re burning up.
