Well, things are getting bad now | |
Since your woman left you, just can't do without it | |
The other day you even read a book | |
That tells you how to go about it | |
It says to join an evening class | |
Or hang around in zoos and railway stations | |
And gives you lots of lines to use | |
And how to make the best of situations | |
You know it's just a bunch of crap, you used to do okay | |
But that was long ago and far away | |
You got the fever | |
You got the fever | |
You gotta love her | |
And you gotta leave her | |
It's something you can't fight (hey hey hey) | |
Let's call it something polite | |
Like the fever of love | |
Fever of love | |
The girls that want you you don't want | |
The girls you want they never seem to want you | |
The girls at work are married | |
And the girls at dances never seem to want to | |
The girls in bars are always with a friend | |
Or waitin' for their new fiancé | |
And you tell the barmaid you're just lonely | |
She just smiles and says: "That's what they all say" | |
So you look up some old number you said you'd never use | |
And tell yourself you win instead of lose | |
You got the fever | |
You got the fever | |
You gotta love her | |
And you gotta leave her | |
It's something you can't fight (hey hey hey) | |
Let's call it something polite | |
Like the fever of love | |
Fever of love | |
You got the fever | |
You got the fever | |
You gotta love her | |
And you gotta leave her | |
It's something you can't fight (hey hey hey) | |
Let's call it something polite | |
Like the fever of love | |
Fever of love |
