"Fever Few"
(written by Kristin Hersh)

I break the ice
I melt the snow
I knew you twice
Once, long ago
Maybe it's the fever
Or the radio
I hear someone singing
Way down low
Right now
Right now
You bring me water
You bring me dope
I don't like you, but you're my only hope
I'm not talking, that's the radio
Look at me, I melt snow
Right now
Right now
(Ride...) four red (ride...) horses through my (ride...) room
Four red (ride...) horses through my room
Maybe it's the fever
I'd kill to see you fly
And for a glass of water before I die
How many of you are there?
I see like three
Maybe you should take this stuff away from me
Right now
Right now
I break the ice
I melt the snow
I knew you twice
Once, long ago
And right now...

WORDS FROM KRISTIN:
- "University was recorded at Kingsway in New Orleans in 2 sessions, August and November-December 1993. Between the 2 sessions these songs "Shimmer" and "Fever Few" just sort of popped out. The Muses ran into the studio to demo them while I was still trying to figure out what they were."

Don't worry, dance in the road.
