I got a rip in my shoes and a hole in my brand new shoes
I got a Margarita nose and a breath full of Mad Dog Booze
I got the fever, fever, fever, fever
Yeah, they threw me outta jail I tell ya it ain’t fair
I tried to kiss the judge from the electrica’ chair
Yeah we’re all here , ’cause we’re not all there tonight
The guitar’s cranked and the bass man’s blown a fuse
And when the whole gang bangs tell me then what is your excuse?
I got the fever, fever, fever, fever
Fever gives you lust with an appetite
It hits you like the fangs from a rattlesnake bite
Yeah we’re all here, ’cause we’re not all there tonight
We can’t run away from trouble
There ain’t no place that far
But if we do it right at the speed of light
There’s the backseat of my car – caviar
I was feelin’ so high I forgot what day
Now I’m feeling low down, even slow feels way to fast
And now the booze don’t work ’cause the drugs ran out of gas
I got the fever, fever, fever, fever
The buzz that you’re gettin’ from the crack don’t last
I’d rather be O.D.in’ on the crack of her ass
Yeah we’re all here ’cause we’re not all there tonight
My first time ever lover
We fell asleep out on the lawn
And when I woke up I was all alone
Making love to the crack of dawn
So yo, I beg yo pardon sir
The gangster of love rides again
You now I gotta chill Fever
It gimme such a thrill Fever
Like a burnin’ plague Fever
Yeah get outta my way Fever
Fever may be Hell and a cross to bear
As long as I’m in heaven, honey I don’t care
You look so good baby, look so fine
I tell you you’re the image of a perfect crime
You get so tired holdin’ on so tight
If you think you’re goin’ crazy
Well you may be right
Yeah we’re all here ’cause we’re not all there tonight
