(Al Yankovic)

When I said I'd be faithful

When I promised I'd be true

When I swore that I could never

Be with anyone but you

When I told you that I loved you

With those tender words I spoke

I was only kidding

Now, can't you take a joke?

When I said that I need you, baby

When I told you I really care

When I said that I can't live without you

When I said I'd follow you anywhere

When I said you could always trust me

When I said I'd never leave you flat

Well, gues what? I was only kidding, baby

I can('t belieeeeeve you fell for that! You're so gullible...

CHORUS

(I was only kidding) I was only kidding

(I was only kidding) I was only kidding

I was only kidding

Now I'm sorry if you misunderstood, but the fact remains

(I was only kidding) I was only kidding

(I was only kidding) I was only kidding

Well I guess I got you pretty good, now listen

When I said that I love you baby
