Cabin Fever

Cabin Fever is a song from Muppet Treasure Island. When the wind drops, and the Hispaniola begins to drift, the crew go stir crazy out of boredom. The human pirate twosome, Calico Jerry and Easy Pete, are the first to succumb to cabin fever, and the rest of the crew quickly follow suit. Some of the lead characters, including Squire Trelawney and Gonzo, dress up in Spanish-style costumes, and dance around the ship playing maracas.

Lyrics
I've got cabin fever, I've got it too! I got cabin fever it's burning in my brain I've got cabin fever it's driving me insane We got cabin fever, we're flipping our bandanas Been stuck at sea so long we have simply gone bananas

Ariba! Chica chica boom A chica chica boom boom chic Chica chica boom A chica chica boom boom chic

We got cabin fever we've lost what sense we had We got cabin fever, we're all going mad

My sanity is hanging by a thread Since we're going nowhere I've gone out of my head We were sailing sailing over the bounding main And now we're not! Ha ha heh!

Grab your partner by the ears Lash him to the wheel Do-si-do step on his toe Listen to him squeal Allemande left, allemande right It's time to sail or sink Swing your partner over the side Drop him in the drink

We got cabin fever No if's, and's, or but's We're disoriented And demented And a little nuts

Ach du lieber Volswagen car (Yodel-lay-ee-hoo) Saur braten viener schnitzel Und a vunder bar (Yodel-lay-ee-hoo)

We were sailing, sailing the wind was on our side And then it died

I've got cabin fever I think I've lost my grip I'd like to get my hands on Whoever wrote this script Si!

I was floating 'neath a tropic moon And dreaming of a blue lagoon Now I'm crazy as a loon

Cabin fever has ravaged all aboard This once proud vessel has become a floating psycho ward We were sailing, sailing headed who knows where And now though we're all here We're not all there

Cabin fever! AAHHH!!
