When I saw you for the
First time (first time)
My knees began to quiver (quiver)
And I got a funny feeling (feeling)
In my kidneys and my liver
(digestive system baby)
My hands they started shakin' (shakin')
My heart began a-thumpin'
(boom, boom, boom)
My breakfast left my
Body (huey, huey, huey)
Now darling tell me something

Why do you make me tongue tied
(tongue tied) tongue tied
Whenever you are near me? (near me)
Tied tongue (tied tongue)
Tied tongue (tied tongue)
Whenever you're in town
You make me feel a clown, girl
Yes, you make me tongue tongue
(tied tied) tongue tied
Why can't I tell you clearly? (clearly)
Tied tied, tongue tongue
(tongue tied, tongue tied)
Whenever you're around
I saw you 'cross the
Dance floor (dancin')
I thought of birds and bees
(reproductive system baby)
But when I tried to
Speak to ya (talk, talk)
My tongue unravelled to my
Knees (flippety-flippety-flop)
I tried to say "I love you" (love you)
But it came out kind of
Wrong, girl (wrong girl)
It sounded like
"nunubididoo" (tongue tied)
Nuh-mur-nuh-murh-ni-nong-nurl

That's 'cause you make me tongue
Tied (tongue tied) tongue tied
Whenever you are near me (near me)
I'm nurmy murmy (nurmy murmy)
Murmy nurmy (nurmy murmy)
Whenever you're in town (in town)
My trousers they go brown, girl
Yes, you make me nongy nangy
(nangy nongy) tongue tied
Why can't I tell you clearly? (clearly)
Be-dobby-durgle (dobby durgle)
Tongue tied (tongue tied)
Whenever you're around
Oh, I'm beggin' on my knees
Sweet, sweet darling, listen please
Understand me when I say

Gedurble-diggle-doggle-
Niggle-foggle-nibble-nay
I'm trying to say I'm tongue
Tied (tongue tied) tongue tied
Whenever you are near me (really)

Murmy nurmy (murmy nurmy)
Whenever you're in town (in town)
