CABIN FEVER<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Never knew such cabin fever.
\nNever had such time to spare.
\nTried to put my arms around it,
\nbut that fever was too hard to bear<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

I had the fever, stuck inside me,
\nit had a grip on me tight.
\nFever, in the mornin\u2019,
\na fever even overnight.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Sun lit up the day time;
\nmoon lit up the night.
\nI got lit up, both seemed the same
\nNo more Fever after I got tight.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

No more fever after I got tight.
\nBut next morning I was quite a sight.
\nA hangover that didn’t feel right.
\nAnother fever.
\nIf you’re smart you will avoid that plight.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Cabin Fever Cabin Fever
\nmope a lot pine a lot sulk a lot
\nCabin Fever Cabin Fever
\nTake a walk take a stroll take a hike
\nGo move it to a movie
\nGo to a groovy movie
\nCabin Fever Cabin Fever
\nChocolate Chocolate Chocolate
\nCabin Fever Cabin Fever
\nEat a lot drink a lot sleep a lot<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

CABIN FEVER 3<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Romeo loved Juliet
\nJuliet she loved him back.
\nWhen her daddy tried to stop them,
\nthey nixed Cabin Fever with their pact.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Thou wretched fever, we don’t misseth,
\ndistracted by flaming youth.
\nTwo lovers on fire.
\nTo say more would be uncouth.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

\"Photobucket\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Captain Smith and Pocahontas
\nHad a very mad affair.
\nIn their cabin on the ship to England,
\nthey seldom wore their underwear.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

He gave her fever with his kisses.
\nNaked she was quite a sight.
\nGood thing she was his missus,
\nor a shipboard jury might indict.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Now you\u2019ve listened to my story.
\nHere\u2019s the point that I have made:
\nthough cabins were made to give you fever,
\nyou might beat it if you can get laid.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Cabins cause fever when you’re stuck in one,
\nfever if the weather’s in churn.
\nAfter many days of drizzle
\nthere are times you wish that it would burn.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n
