Peggy Lee - Fever (2 komentāri)

First time I had the fever
they said I had the kissing disease,
they said that it was quite contagious
so I didn't even dare to sneeze.

I'd give you fever,
if I kissed you,
fever, if I held you tight.
Fever! — In the morning,
fever all through the night.

They play it on the runway in Paris,
the models do a sassy walk.
They know just the way to swish it
while the local yokels stand and cock.

They give them fever,
when they do it,
fever, when they do a turn.
Fever! They're afire
and what a lovely way to burn!

Everybody's got the fever,
that is something you all know,
fever isn't such a new thing,
fever started long ago.

Captain Smith, Pocahontas
had a very mad affair.
When her daddy tried to kill him
she said "Daddy, oh, don't you dare!

He gives me fever
with his kisses,
fever, when he holds me tight.
Fever! I'm his missis.
Daddy, won't you treat him right!?"

Romeo loved Juliet.
Juliet — she felt the same —
when he put his arms around her,
he said, "Julie, baby, you're my flame,

thou giveth fever
with thy kisses,
fever, with thy flaming youth.
Fever! I'm afire,
yeah, I burn forsooth."

Now you've listened to my story,
here's the point that I have made —
chicks were born to give you fever
be it Fahrenheit or Centigrade!

They give you fever,
when you kiss them,
fever, if you live you'll learn...
Fever! — Till you sizzle!
But what a lovely way to burn!
