Dread Zeppelin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There is something goin' down and I can feel it
On the waves of the air, there is dancin' out there
And if it's something we can share, we can steal it
Sweet city woman, she moves through the light
Controllin' my mind and my soul
Reach out for me, girl and the feelin' is right
Night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Night fever, night fever
We know how to show it
Here I am, waiting for this moment to last
Livin' on the music so fine
Born on the wind, making it mine
Night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Night fever, night fever
We know how to show it
In the heat of our love, don't need no help for us to make it
Gimme just enough to take us into the mornin'
I got fire in my mind, I got higher in my walkin'
And I'm glowin' in the dark, I give you warnin'
Ssweet city woman, she moves through the light
Controllin' my mind and my soul
Reach out for me, girl and the feelin' is right
Night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Night fever, night fever
We know how to show it
Here I am, waiting for this moment to last
Livin' on the music so fine
Born on the wind, making it mine
Night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Night fever, night fever
We know how to show it
Night fever, night fever
We know how to do it
Night fever, night fever
We know how to show it
Night fever, night fever
The lyrics to Dread Zeppelin’s Night Fever are an interesting take on the Bee Gees’ classic disco hit. The song’s opening line, “Listen to the ground, there is a movement all around” suggests that the singer is attuned to the energy and excitement that comes with music and dancing. The following lines describe the thrill of being out in the world, feeling the music and the vibe. The singer seems to be in the moment, experiencing a rush of emotions and sensations.
The song’s chorus, “Night fever, night fever, we know how to do it, night fever, night fever, we know how to show it” is a celebration of the power of music and dance. It suggests that there is something elemental about these experiences that is shared by everyone on the dance floor. It’s a simple message, but one that captures the essence of what makes disco music so enduring.
The final verse of the song reinforces this message, with the singer describing the intensity of the love and passion that can be found on the dance floor. The imagery of “fire in my mind,” “higher in my walking,” and “glowing in the dark” all suggest a level of excitement and vitality that is hard to find in other places.
