Scarlet Fever

(album: Midnite Dynamite - 1985)

Poison from her red lips
And her kiss
Why'd it taste so sweet
You put me on the sick list
I was fine
You knocked me off my feet
It's a poison
So strong
That it won't let go
Strange emotion
But what hit me
Baby I don't know

Na na na na na na
All that I see
Is a color in my head
Na na na na na na
I've got the disease
From the lips painted red

Scarlet fever
I got it bad
Contageous all the way
Scarlet fever
In my head
It's red hot night and day
Yeah Yeah Yeah

My heart was barley beating
Cold chills
Running down my spine
My meter wasn't reading
Overload
Past the danger line
Sweet seduction
With a look she stopped me in my tracks
Panic button
With a touch there's no turning back

Na na na na na na
Red hot lips
The... flickers and the...
Na na na na na na
I can't walk away
You are the hunter
And I am the prey

Poison from her red lips
And her kiss
Why'd it taste so sweet
You put me on the sick list
I was fine
You knocked me off my feet
