David Cassidy's earlier music had immature themes, and this song was rejected by his producers for obvious reasons.
A clever re-write was attempted and the result was history...
I Think I Love Glue (I Think I Love You)
ba ba ba ba ba-ba ba ba ba
ba ba-ba ba ba
I'm huffing And right in the middle of the regime like all at once I wake up From something
that keeps knocking at my brain Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head And spring up in my bed Screaming
out the words I dread: "I think I love glue!" (I think I love glue)
This morning, I woke up sort of reeling I didn't know how to deal with And so I just decided
to myself I'd hide it to myself And never talk about it And didn't I go and shout it When you walked into my room. "I
think I love glue!" (I think I love glue)
I think I love glue So what am I so afraid of? I'm afraid that I'm not sure of A love there
is no cure for I think I love glue I won-der what glue is made of? Though it worries me to say I've never
felt this way
I don't know what I'm up against I don't know what its all about I've got so much to think
about Hey..
I think I love glue So what am I so afraid of? I'm afraid that I'm not sure of A love there
is no cure for I think I love glue I won-der what glue is made of? Though it worries me to say I've never
felt this way
Believe me You really don't have to worry I only want to make you happy And if you say, hey,
go away, I will But I think better still I ought to stay around and sniff glue Do you buy this by the case? Let
me put this to your face: Do you think you love glue? I think I love glue!
