Something in the air, I don't know what it is
Half the kids are staying home alone sick
Daddy skipped his job, he said he's too tired
Mommy's upset saying, "Brewer's Droop's it!"
But we all know what it is
It's a fever, and it's in our streets
A fever, in the breeze
Fever, we can't treat it now
Fever! Call the police
Fever! There is no peace
Fever! Think it's going round
Newsman saying "we need a solution"
Well, I don't think he's the scientist
President saying he wants martial law
But congress upset that they can't drink alone
But we know it's right
There's a fever, and it's in our streets
A fever, in the breeze
Fever, we can't treat it now
Fever! Call the police
Fever! There is no peace
Fever! Nation's coming down
Neighborhood's quiet and no one's around
I think they're collecting the bodies now
I'm not feeling hot, but I'm okay
I'm not gonna get collected, no no not today
I just gotta go and keep that illness at bay
There's a fever, and it's in our streets
A fever, in the breeze
Fever, nation's coming down
Fever! Call the police
Fever! There is no peace
Fever! We can't treat it now
Fever, and it's in our streets
A fever, it's in the breeze
Fever, we can't treat it now
Fever! Call the police
Fever! There is no peace
Fever! Nation's coming down
Fever, it's in the streets
A fever, there is no peace
Fever, I'm on my knees now, oh
Fever! Call the police
Fever! There is no peace
Fever! The Fever's coming down
