Chorus: I’m wild again, beguiled again
A simpering, whimpering child again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I
Couldn’t sleep and wouldn’t sleep
When love came and told me I shouldn’t sleep
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I
Lost my heart, but what of it?
He is cold, I agree. He can laugh, but I love it,
Although the laugh’s on me.
I’ll sing to him, each spring to him,
And long for the day when I’ll cling to him
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I
Verse: He’s a fool, and don’t I know it.
But a fool can have his charms.
I’m in love and don’t I show it like a babe in arms.
Love’s the same old sad sensation.
Lately, I’ve not slept a wink,
Since this half-pint imitation put me on the blink.
Chorus: I’ve sinned a lot; I mean a lot!
But now I’m like sweet seventeen a lot.
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I.
I’ll sing to him, each spring to him,
And worship the trousers that cling to him.
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I.
When he talks he is seeking words to get off his chest.
Horizontally speaking, he’s at his very best.
Vexed again, perplexed again,
Thank God I can be oversexed again.
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered am I
Wise at last, my eyes at last Couldn’t eat, was dyspeptic
Are cutting you down to your size at last
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered no more
Burned a lot, but learned a lot
And now you are broke, so you earned a lot
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered no more
Life was so hard to bear; now my heart’s antiseptic
Since you moved out of there
Romance-finis, your chance-finis
Those ants that invaded my pants-finis
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered no more.
