Fever Lyrics

I know it's not you're problem but it's true
I never have the time of day for you

You don't have fever
Don't have fever
You don't have fever
You've got you

You walk the streets alone
You're striking out for home
I don't want other loved ones
I want you
I don't want other loved ones
I want you

You don't have fever
You don't have fever
You don't have fever
You've got you

You walk the streets at night
You've been lookin for a fight
Sometimes what your afters not your fault
Cus happy ever afters what your taught

You don't have fever
You don't have fever
You don't have fever
You've got you

No one makes you calm
Though you've got people on your arm

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think it's about a guy who wants this girl, but she is an independent person and wants something completely different. She can never be fully satisfied even if she has many admirerers.

I was really confused when I first heard this song because it's 'you don't have fever' and 'i never have the time of day for you' which caused me to think he doesn't like this girl. But then he says 'I don't want other loved ones, I want you' Is he saying she doesn't have the fever of wanting someone to love, showing she's independent? I don't know :/

I think it's about a guy who's been mistreating the girl he likes and it's an apology to her. Saying it's not her fault he doesn't do what he's supposed to, or that he doesn't deserve her. The "what your afters not your fault" could mean she's looking for somebody else but he doesn't want her to go and leave him, even though he understands she's got the right. The "happy ever afters what your taught" could be saying, she grew up looking for the perfect kind of love and that's not what he's giving her so she has the right to look elsewhere though he doesn't want her to.
