I'm Only Thinking of Him

Padre, on my way here, I was informed by at least 10 people

Yes, Padre, my uncle is the laughingstock of the entire neighborhood
But in spite of the humiliation his madness is bringing down upon our heads

I'm only thinking of him
I'm only thinking of him
Whatever I may do or say
I'm only thinking of him

In my body, it's well known
There is not one selfish bone
I'm only thinking and worrying about him

I've been told he's chasing dragons
And I fear it may be true
If my groom should hear about it
Heaven knows what he will do

Oh, I dearly love my uncle
But for what he's done to me
I would like to take and lock him up
And throw away the key

But if I do, but if I do
There is one thing that I swear will still be true
I'm only thinking of him (I know, I know my dear)
I'm only thinking of him (Of course you are, my dear)
I'm only thinking and worrying about him (I understand)

Oh, I think he's been too lonely
Living years without a spouse
So when he returns
I fear I may have trouble in the house

For they say he seeks a lady
Who his own true love shall be
God forbid that in his madness
He should ever think it's me!

If he should try
I'll surely die
And I will grimly guard my honor as I cry

I'm only thinking of him (I know I know, my dear)
I'm only thinking of him (Of course you are my dear)
I'm only thinking and worrying about him (I understand)

Woooah! Woooah!

They're only thinking of him (woah, woah)
They're only thinking of him (woah, woah)
How saintly is their plaintive plea (woah, woah)
They're only thinking of him (woah, woah)
What a comfort to be sure (woah, woah)
That their motives are so pure (woah, woah)
As they go thinking and worrying about (woah, woah)
Him! (woah)
