Lyrics to 'Cat Scratch Fever' by MOTORHEAD: Well I don't know where they come from, but they sure do come / I hope they're coming for me / And I don't know how they do it, but they do it real good / I hope they do it for free / They give me cat scratch fever / cat scratch fever / First time that I got it I was thirt.
