         E
I got a rip in my pants and
a hole in my brand new shoes
I got a Margarita nose and
a breath full of Mad Dog Booze

Chorus:
                  A      E      A
I got the fever, fever, fever, fever
              E                            A
Yeah, they threw me out of jail I tell you it isn’t fair
    E                                A
I tried to kiss the judge from the electrical chair
      E                          A               D
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's you're excuse?

Chorus:
We got the fever, fever, fever, fever
Fever gives you lust with an appetite
It hits you like the fangs from a rattlesnake bite
We're all here cause we're not all there tonight!

    E     D              A
We can't run away from trouble
      G                    A
There ain’t no place that far
           E D                 A
But if we do it right at the speed of light
             G               A       B
There's the back seat of my car, caviar

I was feeling so high I forgot what day
Now I'm feeling low down
even slow seems way too fast
And now the booze don't
work and the drugs ran out of gas

Chorus:
I got the fever, fever, fever, fever
The buzz that you be getting 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
Makin' love to the Crack of Dawn
So yo, I beg your pardon sir
The gangster of love rides again

Chorus:
I got the fever, fever, fever, 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 the perfect crime
You gets so tired holding on so tight
If you think you're going crazy well you may be right
Yeah, we're all here 'cause we're
not all there, that's right!
