Lyrics When the outside temperature rises And the meaning is oh so clear One thousand and one yellow daffodils Begin to dance in front of you - oh dear Are they trying to tell you something ? You're missing that one final screw You're simply not in the pink my dear To be honest you haven't got a clue I'm going slightly mad I'm going slightly mad It finally happened - happened It finally happened - ooh woh It finally happened - I'm slightly mad - oh dear ! Ha ha ha ha ha I'm one card short of a full deck I'm not quite the shilling One wave short of a shipwreck I'm not my usual top billing I'm coming down with a fever I'm really out to sea This kettle is boiling over I think I'm a banana tree Oh dear I'm going slightly mad I'm going slightly mad (I'm going slightly mad) It finally happened - happened It finally happened - uh huh It finally happened - I'm slightly mad - oh dear ! Uh uh ah ah Uh uh ah ah I'm knitting with only one needle Unravelling fast it's true I'm driving only three wheels these days But my dear, how about you ? I'm going slightly mad I'm going slightly mad It finally happened It finally happened - oh yes It finally happened - I'm slightly mad ! Just very slightly mad ! And there you have it !

"Why are you wasting your time doing this? You should do more original material. You should be more demonstrative in the way that you put the music across. If I was your singer that's what I'd be doing."
