Nervous Condition

(album: The Genie - 1986)

Uh!

How can this be? I'm in a trance
My body freezes up, my heart starts to dance
Somebody call me a good physician
(Is there a doctor in the house?)
And then I do the right thing wrong
While trying to be cool, I come on too strong
I've been put in an awkward position
Tell me what I'm gonna do about her

She gives me a nervous, my nervous condition, yeah
She gives me a nervous, nervous condition, hey

Day and night, I've dreamed of her
Now she's finally with me and a nightmare occurs
I can't believe that I've got inhibitions
Every time she looks at me
Don't you know that I become my own worst enemy?
She gives me

She gives me a nervous, nervous condition
(A nervous condition, babe)
She gives me a nervous, nervous condition

I don't know if I'm in love
'Cause she gave me
A real, real, real, real, real bad nervous condition
She's too much, y'all
Nervous condition
Masio!

When she's around, I just don't know what to say
I don't know if she takes me serious
But as you know, I'm not one to play, you know
Right into my arms, y'all

Oh no, it's happening again
Oh, she's so fine
I don't know what to do
Somebody please get me a towel
So I can wipe this sweat off my forehead
(Right off my forehead)
It's all over my body, you know what I mean?
I just don't know what to do, you know?
I mean, my hands are starting to shake
(Hey man, just go on over there and ask for her name)
No, man, I couldn't do that
I could never bring myself, I mean, to do that
You know what I mean? You know what it's like?
Excuse me, ma'am, what's your name?

Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't you know?
Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, babe

(She gives me a nervous)
I've got a nervous condition, sing
(Nervous condition, hey)
(She gives me a nervous)
Said I've got a nervous condition, yeah
(Nervous condition)

She gave me
Say what?
Nervous condition

(She gives me a nervous)
That's right, I got a nervous condition
It's that (Nervous confusion, ooh babe)
She gives me a nervous, nervous condition, yeah, yeah
(Nervous condition) Yeah, babe

(Nervous condition)
She gives me a nervous
(Nervous condition)
I don't know if I'm in love, hey
Nervous condition
(Nervous condition)
What's wrong with me?
It must be that (Nervous confusion)
Yeah, babe
