Verse 1

 I got a fever for you

 And my friends all think I'm crazy

 Yeah, my mother won't talk to me again

 If I take you back to bed

 I got a fever for you

 Look at the family I'll lose

 Just to feel your lips pressed over my chest,

 See you naked in my bed

 And I'll watch you sleep away mistakes we've made

Chorus

She grew up catholic but I'm barely religious

Don't you think it's kinda silly how she sleeps with my friends?

I got a bad temper, I lose it too fast

So now I'll light up a cigarette

 And I'll think of the day we met

 And how my life's been burning away since then

 Honey, you'll never get me back like that again

Verse 2

I got a fever for you

And what am I supposed to do?

Yeah, I got introduced to this dumb slut

Who grew up around bad love

I got a fever for you

And that crazy stuff you do

Like when you show up at late night at my door

Like some desperate little whore

Looking for something I... (don't say it)

... never gave (that's right I said it)

Chorus

She grew up catholic but I'm barely religious

Don't you think it's kinda silly how she sleeps with my friends?

I got a bad temper, I lose it too fast

So now I'll light up a cigarette

And I'll think of the day we met

And how my life's been burning away since then

Honey, you'll never get me back like that again

No, you'll never get me back like that again
