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 it started thumpin' (boom, boom, boom!)
My breakfast left my body (Heuey, heuey, heuey)
It really tells me something.

Girl, 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 like 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. (dancing)
I thought of birds and bees (reproductive system baby)
But when I tried to speak to you (talk, talk)
My tongue unravelled to my knees (flippity, flippity flop)
I tried to say, "I love you" (love you)
But it came out kind of wrong girl (wrong girl)
It sounded like, "Noo-noo-na-nee-noo" (tongue tied)
Na-ner-ner-ner-nee-nung-nirl.

Because you make me tongue tied (tongue tied)
Tongue Tied. Whenever you are near me
Nurmy, murmy (nurmy, murmy)
Murmy, nurmy (murmy, nurmy)
Whenever you're in town (in town)
My trousers, they go brown, girl.

Yes, you make me nungy-nangy (nangy-nungy)
Tongue tied. Why can't I tell you cleary? (cleary)
Be-dobby-durgle-dobby-durgle (tongue tied, tongue tied)
Whenever you're around.

Oh, I'm begging on my knees
Sweet, sweet darling listen please
Understand me when I say:
Be-durble-diggle-doggle-diggle-doddle-diddle-day

I'm trying to say I'm tongue tied (tongue tied)
Tongue tied. Whenever you are near me (baby)
Nurmy, murmy (nurmy, murmy)
Murmy, nurmy (murmy, nurmy)
Whenever you're in town (in town)
I feel so much like cryin', girl.

Yes, you make me nungy-nangy (nangy-nungy)
Ningy-nungy. Why can't I tell you clearly? (clearly)
Be-dobby-durgle (dobby-durgle)
Durgle-dobby (durgle-dobby)
Whenever you're around (around)
Whever you're around, girl.
