Ever Since You Told Me That You Love Me (I'm a Nut)

(album: God Bless Tiny Tim - 1968)

The birds are coming,
The birds are coming
[Repeats several times/overlap]
Oh, oh, oh, those birds!

I've got to see a doctor,
I've got to see a doctor,
'Cause there's something wrong with me,
What can it be?
What can it be?

I know it isn't indigestion
It isn't indigestion
It's just my poor old brain
It feels so queer
Since you are near, dear!

Ever since you told me that you loved me,
I'm a nut, I'm a nut!
Ever since you said those words, sweetheart,
I'm a bug, I'm a bug!

Can't sleep at night, can't even eat
Something's wrong with both my feet,
I bump into people on the street like a fool
Like a fool, like an over-fool

Ever said you said you'd like to kiss me
Darling, I'm as dandy as can be, Oh, can't you see?
I lie awake all evening until the dog begins to peep,
The doctors gave me something but I'm hanged if I can sleep,
Ever since you told me that you loved me!
[short violin solo]

What can it be?
What can it be?
[short violin solo]

It feels so queer
Since you are near, dear!

Ever since you told me that you loved me,
I'm a nut, I'm a nut!
Ever since you said those words, sweetheart,
I'm a bug, I'm a bug!

Can't sleep at night, can't even eat
Something's wrong with both my feet,
I bump into people on the street like a fool
Like a fool, like an over-fool

Ever said you said you'd like to kiss me
Darling, I'm as dandy as can be,
Oh, can't you see?
I lie awake all evening until the dog begins to peep,
The doctors gave me something but I'm hanged if I can sleep,
Ever since you told me that you loved me!
