Pity Poor Alfie / Fever |
| The streets of pleasure took you to top |
| But every light was red and every sign said stop |
| I felt so confined, just like glued to this spot, oh |
| 'Cause we were sleeping in the noon day sun |
| We escaped the test and the marathon run |
| And no one heard and these mournful cries of «Alfie!» |
| We put a stop to that |
| Whoa, but Alfie, I wish you’d please come back |
| So no one’s hurt, we might have made it through |
| But now there’s nothing left except the memories of you |
| With overflowing powerful woes |
| 'Cause there’s real and fright |
| To the top of the stairs to find poor Alfie |
| And blood stained letters don’t count for change |
| And don’t look for blame |
| 'Cause it’s a fair exchange |
| For the last adventure I have left |
| 'Cause we were sleeping in the noon day sun |
| We escaped the test and the marathon run |
| And no one heard and these mournful cries of «Alfie!» |
| We put a stop to that |
| Oh, but Alfie, I wish you’d please come back |
| Now it’s gonna be hard for me to make it through |
| When all that’s left is the memories of |
| Nothing left except the memories of war and pain |
| Please pity poor Alfie |
| Poor Alfie put a stop to that |
| Poor Alfie I wish you’d please come back |
| Poor Alfie put a stop to that |
| Oh, but Alfie I wish you’d please come back |
| Poor Alfie! |
| You’ll never know how much I love you |
| Never know how much I care |
| 'Cause when you put your arms around me |
| I get a fever I can hardly bear |
| You give me fever |
| When you kiss me |
| Fever when you hold me tight |
| Fever through the daytime |
| I get a fever all through the night |
| Sun lights up the daytime |
| Moon lights up the night |
| I light up when you kiss me |
| And I know you’re gonna treat me right |
| You give me fever |
| When you kiss me |
| Fever when you hold me tight |
| Fever through the daytime |
| I get a fever all through the night |
| Bless my soul I love you |
| Take me so far away |
| Take these arms I’ll never use |
| Just believe what my words have to say |
| You give me fever |
| When you kiss me |
| Fever when you hold me tight |
| Fever through the daytime |
| I get a fever all through the night |
| You give me fever |
