Jam - PITY POOR ALFIE/FEVER lyrics

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
