Lyrics:

It was half my life ago
I was drinking out in the snow
And the next day i was weak as a kitty
Glandular fever got the best of me

I had my first real girlfriend
It felt so nice to be in love again
Maybe that's why I got the kissing disease?
Glandular fever got the best of me

Sleeping cos there's nothing else to do
At least I didn't have to go to school, ah no
Yeah, I was listening to Pinkerton
Mind-sweeping round all the pubs
It was a whole new way of life to me
Then glandular fever got the best of me

It was half my life ago, i'd been drinking out in the snow
And now its left me with the curse of apathy
Glandular fever got the best of me
