Fever

I was in a fever
I'm in a fever now
my fever wasn't god-sent
it was man-made
and the angels
would pass me by
    saying
    god doesn't want someone like you
    god doesn't want someone
    who is always on the run
    god doesn't need one more like you
    his place is full of fools
    like you who just spoil the fun

When there's none of it
I can do without
but when there's some of it
I take it all
and the angels
would look askance

    refr.

               he's busy abdicating
               busy abdicating
               he's busy abdicating
               or laying low
               somewhere
               or playing dead.
