[Verse 1: Kool Shen]
It all started one morning when at 10:10 am
I was jolted out of bed by the asshole of the day
My upstairs neighbor, a big Elvis fan
Spends his weekends blasting live albums from Memphis
Worst of all, I hardly got any sleep last night
You gotta understand, last night I was out, man
'Til 6 in the morning
You get me?
That means I got no more than four hours of sleep exactly
I'm gonna spend the rest of the day in a haze
On top of that, I got important meetings, interviews
This could be tough, I'm in a bad mood, I admit
But I accept it, I take control, in fact
I'm already at the wheel of my car
Headed for Les Abbesses
Where I got a meeting with
The man they call Joey Joey Starr
But I didn't make it 500 meters before the cops stopped me
And asked me to pull over to see my ID
A simple formality when you have your papers
But this time, I didn't have them on me
So I was asked to go to the police station where
They "gave me the fever" for hours

[Chorus: Kool Shen]
They "gave me the fever" for hours
They "gave me the fever" for hours
They "gave me the fever" for hours
They "gave me the fever" for hours
They "gave me the fever" for hours
They "gave me the fever" for hours
They "gave me the fever" for hours
They "gave me the fever" for hours
