The Lyrics
Seeing the reference to steam baths in John Barry's"It's on Meat Fare I'll Live" reminded me of the following, written years ago. Perspired -- I mean, inspired -- by the first visit to a gym after having driven across the US. Early, un-evolved Turtle.
"Bods" go astray;
Toxins ac-cum-u-late
Causing disease;
Better: please, to ventilate
Go to the gym
And increase your pulse rate
Sit in the steam
And emerge feeling great!
Opens up your pores
Purges all your sores
Cleans you to the cores:
Ever-blasting steam!
Once you step inside
Pores will open wide
The germs will all be fried
In ever-blasting steam!
From the very start
Pry your pores apart
Stimulate your heart
With ever-blasting steam!
Need a steam bath or a sauna
Take one each week, yes, I wanna!
(instrumental)
Sinuses and nose
Send their scummy flows
Out your skin it goes
In ever-blasting steam!
When you're feeling punk
Blood is clogged with gunk
Get rid of the junk
With ever-blasting steam!
Once the junk is gone
You will feel so strong
Your thanks, they will belong
To ever-blasting steam!
Need a steam bath or a sauna
Take one each week, yes, I'm gonna!
(repeat verses and fade)
Toxins ac-cum-u-late
Causing disease;
Better: please, to ventilate
Go to the gym
And increase your pulse rate
Sit in the steam
And emerge feeling great!
Opens up your pores
Purges all your sores
Cleans you to the cores:
Ever-blasting steam!
Once you step inside
Pores will open wide
The germs will all be fried
In ever-blasting steam!
From the very start
Pry your pores apart
Stimulate your heart
With ever-blasting steam!
Need a steam bath or a sauna
Take one each week, yes, I wanna!
(instrumental)
Sinuses and nose
Send their scummy flows
Out your skin it goes
In ever-blasting steam!
When you're feeling punk
Blood is clogged with gunk
Get rid of the junk
With ever-blasting steam!
Once the junk is gone
You will feel so strong
Your thanks, they will belong
To ever-blasting steam!
Need a steam bath or a sauna
Take one each week, yes, I'm gonna!
(repeat verses and fade)

Perfect parody for this song
Larry Hensley, thanks.
This song got me all hot!
Peregrin, if that's the case, would you mind sitting in another booth? ;-D
Sure. Exploding turtles are a health hazard.
I'm sure you knew this, but I was more concerned about your getting "in heat" with TT in the same booth... ;-D -- good change of meaning there, and a nice poikilothermic ref as well. :)
Yes, i avoided the whole concept!!!
You're a better man than I am, Pera-Grin!
