| The Fever
by Bruce Springsteenn
When I get home from my job I turn on my T.V.
But I can't keep my mind on the show
When I lay down at night, oh I can't get no sleep
So I turn on my radio
But the only sound I hear is you whisperin' in my ear
The words that you used to say
Now my days grow longer
'Cause my love grows stronger
And the fever gets worse
And I've got the fever for this girl
Got the fever, oh I've got the fever
Nothing that a po' boy can do
When he's got the fever for this girl
Got the fever, oh I've got the fever
Left this little boy blue
I can remember comin' home
See you standin' at the stove
With the dishes on the table
Dinner ready to go
We'll maybe go out to a movie show
Something that you like to see
Well now you are my sun in the morning
And my moon at night
I think about you baby
I feel alright
Now my days grow longer
'Cause my love grows stronger
And the fever gets worse
And I've got the fever for this girl
Got the fever, oh I've got the fever
Nothing that a po' boy can do
When he's got the fever for this girl
Got the fever, oh I've got the fever
Left this little boy blue

| How about:
He's got a split finger wrap
And his rope's pulled way to tight
He's got a lunatic smile
'Cause he's really drawn deep tonight
He's got a fever, fever, fever, fever
Grab a hold of anything and hold on tight
It hits you like the venom from a rattle snake bite
We're all here 'cause he's not all there tonight
He takes one breath
And time turns inside out
Then the gate busts open to the world he dreams about
He's got a fever, fever, fever, fever
Stick a rope on anything 'cause he don't care
He'd even take a ride on the electric chair
We're all here cause he's not all there tonight
He says it's really kind of simple
Keep your mind in the middle
While your butt spins 'round and 'round
Take heed to Sankey's preachin'
Keep liftin' and reachin'
And ridin' like there ain't no clowns
What he loves might kill him
But he's got no choice
He's a different breed
With a voice down deep inside
That's screamin' he was born to ride
He's got a fever, fever, fever, fever
Fever makes you crazy 'cause it makes no sense
Like runnin' from your shadow out of self-defense
He won't run and baby he can't hide
He thinks the odds are even leavin' one hand tied
He gets so tired of hangin' on so tight
I know you think he's crazy well I think you're right
We're all here 'cause he's not all there that's right
Don't hate me because I'm beautiful...

| Or this one:
Fever
Hey...hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
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)
I got the fever, fever, fever, fever
Yeah, they threw me outa jail
I tell ya it ain't fair
I tried to kiss the judge
In 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...yee whooo
And when the whole gang bangs
Tell me then what's your excuse?
(Chorus)
We got the..
Fever gives you lust with an appetite
It hits you like the fangs
From a rattlesnake bite
We are 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 a light
There's the backseat of my car...caviar...that's right
And I was feelin' so high I forgot what day
Now I'm feeling low down
Even slow seems way to fast...ahh yeah
And now the booze don't work
'Cause the drugs ran outa gas
(Chorus)
I got the...
The buzz that you be gettin'
From the crack don't last
I'd rather be O.D.in' on the crack of her ass
Yeah we are 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
I got the fever...
You know I got the chill
Fever...
It gimme such a thrill
Fever...
Like a burnin' plague
Fever...
Yeah get outa my way
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 babe, look so fine
I tell you you're the image of the 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...that's right

| I had a friend in college who thought Garth wrote the song himself. He had never heard the Aerosmith version. Go figure....
Don't hate me because I'm beautiful...

| another Bruce song:
Ain’t Got You
I got the fortunes of heaven in diamonds and gold
I got all the bonds baby that the bank could hold
I got houses ’cross the country honey end to end
And everybody buddy wants to be my friend
Well I got all the riches baby any man ever knew
But the only thing I ain’t got honey I ain’t got you
I got a house full of Rembrandt and priceless art
And all the little girls they wanna tear me apart
When I walk down the street people stop and stare
Well you’d think I might be thrilled but baby I don’t care
’Cause I got more good luck honey than old King Farouk
But the olny thing I ain’t got baby I ain’t got you
I got a big diamond watch sittin’ on my wrist
I try to tempt you baby but you just resist
I made a deal with de devil babe I won’t deny
Until I got you in my arms I can’t be satisfied
I got a pound of caviar sitting home on ice
I got a fancy foreign car that rides like paradise
I got a hundred pretty women knockin’ down my door
And folks wanna kiss me I ain’t even seen before
I been around the world and all across the seven seas
Been paid a king’s ransom for doin’ what comes naturally
But I’m still the biggest fool honey this world ever knew
’Cause the olny thing I ain’t got baby I ain’t got you
Care to stick your hot dog in between my buns? |

| SHE'S THE ONE
With her killer graces and her secret places
That no boy can fill with her hands on her hips
Oh and that smile on her lips
Because she knows that it kills me
With her soft french cream
Standing in that doorway like a dream
I wish she'd just leave me alone
Because french cream won't soften them boots
And french kisses will not break that heart of stone
With her long hair falling
And her eyes that shine like a midnight sun
Oh-o she's the one, she's the one
That Thunder in your heart
At night when you're kneeling in the dark
It says you're never gonna leave her
But there's this angel in her eyes
That tells such desperate lies
And all you want to do is believe her
And tonight you'll try just one more time
To leave it all behind and to break on through
Oh she can take you, but if she wants to break you
She's gonna find out that ain't so easy to do
And no matter where you sleep tonight or how far you run
Oh-o she's the one, she's the one
Oh-o and just one kiss
She'd fill them long summer nights
With her tenderness that secret pact you made
Back when her love could save you from the bitterness
Oh she's the one, oh she's the one
Oh she's the one, oh she's the one
Oh she's the one, oh she's the one

| Brilliant Disguise
I hold you in my arms as the band plays
What are those words whispered baby just as you turn away
I saw you last night out on the edge of town
I wanna read your mind and know just what I've got in this new thing
I've found
So tell me what I see when I look in your eyes
Is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise
I heard somebody call your name from underneath our willow
I saw something tucked in shame underneath your pillow
Well I've tried so hard baby but I just can't see
What a woman like you is doing with me
So tell me what I see when I look in your eyes
Is that you baby or just a brilliant disguise
Now look at me baby struggling to do everything right
And then it all falls apart when out go the lights
I'm just a lonely pilgrim I walk this world in wealth
I want to know if it's you I don't trust 'cause I damn sure don't trust myself
Now you play the loving woman I'll play the faithful man
But just don't look too close into the palm of my hand
We stood at the alter the gypsy swore our future was right
But come the wee wee hours maybe baby the gypsy lied
So when you look at me you better look hard and look twice
Is that me baby or just a brilliant disguise
Tonight our bed is cold
I'm lost in the darkness of our love
God have mercy on the man
Who doubts what he's sure of
