“(I’m Your) Heat Pump” is full of delightful double entendres, with the heat pump playing the role of both lover and steady, dependable appliance.

“When you want it hot, I’m hot for you, when you want it cool, I’m cool witchu, babe,” croons singer Will Hammond Jr., in a line that will surely earworm its way into your head. “Cause I can do it all for you, baby, all you got to do is turn me on.”

Along with being surprisingly catchy, the song educates listeners about the heat pump: how it fights climate change, how heat pumps work, and why you might consider the heating and cooling device.

Lyrics to “I’m Your Heat Pump”

INTRO – SPOKEN
Baby, tell me what you want…
Cool days…? Warm nights…?
Yeah, sometimes we all need a little help
To make everything just right
Not too hot, not too cold…
Goldilocks
And what I’m wanna tell you, babe, is I got the tools to hit that sweet spot
Every time
I wanna help you, babe
Wanna blow your mind…
 
CHORUS 1 – SUNG
I’m your heat pump
When you want it hot, I’m hot for you
(I’m your heat pump)
When you want it cool, I’m cool witchu, babe
‘Cause I can do it all for you, baby
All you got to do is turn me on 
And I’ll go on and on for you (check me out)
 
VERSE
Part of me goes inside (inside)
Part of me goes out (all of me pumpin’ for you)
I’m precisely calibrated
To make you scream and shout (’cause I’m electric in yo’ hizzy)
‘Cause I can move heat in or out (in or out)
‘Til you feel what you wanna be feelin’ 
You and me + electricity (come on) = Climatic healing (Math y’all!) 
 
CHORUS 2
I’m your heat pump (pumpin’ it, baby) 
When you want it hot, I’m hot for you
(I’m your heat pump – blowin’ it out for you) 
When you want it cool, I’m cool witchu, babe
Don’t matter if you’re livin’ in the sun or snow
Any place you go
I’ll be there for you
That’s all I wanna do
 
FLOW
I’m switched on 
Sippin’ on electrons
Never gonna burn fuel
‘Cause I prefer to keep the planet cool
All day, all night I keep hummin’
Keeping hydrocarbons quakin’ ‘cause I’m comin’
No time for waitin’, I’m-a get proliferatin’
In every state and every nation, gonna stimulate the conversation
It’s time to get BUSY
Cut your gas line, I’m electric in yo’ hizzy
 
OUT CHORUS
(I’m your heat pump)
When you want it hot, I’m hot for you
(I’m your heat pump)
When you want it cool, I’m cool witchu, babe
Any way you want it, I got you, babe 
I got you, baby
I’m your heat pump, etc. etc.
