98 degrees is a song about obsessive thinking. Ian suffers from Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, a psychological disorder characterized by obsessive thinking and compulsive behaviors. This song expresses the struggles and emotions that come with the thought process behind obsessive thinking.
[verse 1]
I'm looking for a antibiotic for compulsive behaviour
I reached a boiling point, I called my CVS neighborhood store
And told them my temperature is 98 degrees
I put my head inside my freezer just to get some relief
But I guess it didn't have an everlasting effect
'cause the moment that I pulled it out I started to sweat
Now I wish they had an antidote for cognitive stress
Maybe I'll move to Alaska, build an igloo and rest
[refrain]
Inside my head it's 98 degrees
Oh my god, what do want from me?
I triеd my best to get some rеlief
Just a little break to put my mind at ease
It's 98 degrees
[verse 2]
My fever isn't chronic, it's just diabolic in nature
I guess the devil did me a favor
'cause it makes me stronger every day when
I get outta bed and find a way to make friends with my
Darkness as I'm sitting on this park bench
It's 98 degrees outside, I'm feeling nauseous
But I do know what they know
Feel as they come they go
Saturday all the day through Sunday
Sunday to Monday oh
[refrain]
Inside my head it's 98 degrees
Oh my god, what do want from me?
I tried my best to get some relief
Just a little break to put my mind at ease
So I hold my head up high
And hope for peace of mine
[verse 3]
Try to stay 6 feet away
'cause right now I don't feel like me
I wish I had a PhD
To understand psychology
But I don't
I must roam
Through my own complications
If they built Rome in a day
This is not complicated
[refrain]
Inside my head it's 98 degrees
Oh my god, what do want from me?
I tried my best to get some relief
Just a little break to put my mind at ease
[outro]
So I hold my head up high
And hope for piece of mine
It's 98 degrees
It's 98 degrees
(It's 98 degrees, it's 98 degrees, it's 98 degrees)
It's 98 degrees
(peace for me, pea-pea-peace for me, oh
Peace for me, pea-pea-peace for me)
