Lyrics

Derek the geothermal research guy was lonely 
He's been hanging up the mistletoe and building up the fire all day 
He lies in his igloo dreaming of his one and only 
But Nature calls, and he has to get away 
He could see his frosty breath as he paces round and round 
Trying to keep his mind off his frozen toes 
An icy tear falls and shatters at his feet 
He hears the sound of memories 
As a fountain of magma erupts from down below 

Oh, Magma Lady 
Everybody seems to doubt you (or your existence) 
Oh, Magma Lady 
It wouldn't be Christmas without you 

Derek's dancing a tango in a hellish rain of magma 
he ducks and dives with a fiendish glint in his eye 
It's all he could wish for it's all he has ever wanted 
Derek's thrilled and he knows he might just die 
There's a molten piece of rock flying at his head 
For a moment he thinks of the folks back home 
And deep in his heart he knows that lava is his real home anyway 
He tangos on with his eyes closed 
And skips across the glowing rocky foam 

Oh, Magma Lady 
Everybody seems to doubt you (or your existence) 
Oh, Magma Lady 
It wouldn't be Christmas without you 

Without you the polar bears would still have ice to stand on 
Without you Santa would still have a strip to land on 
Without you Derek would feel desperately old 
Without you the children would all be miserable and cold 

Oh, Magma Lady 
Everybody seems to doubt you (or your existence) 
Oh, Magma Lady 
It wouldn't be Christmas without you
