Clumsy Lyrics

[Refrain: Little Richard, Fergie]
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (Oh, baby)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (Oh, baby)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (Oh, baby)
She can't help it

[Verse 1: Fergie]
First time that I saw your eyes
Boy, you looked right through me, mm-mm
Played it cool, but I knew you knew
That cupid hit me, mm-mm

[Chorus: Fergie]
You got me trippin' (Oh), stumblin' (Oh), flippin' (Oh), fumblin'
So clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love (In - in, love - love)
You got me slippin' (Oh), tumblin' (Oh), sinkin' (Oh), crumblin'
So clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love (In - in, love - love)
So in love with you


[Refrain: Little Richard, Fergie]
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (Oh, baby)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (Oh, no)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (No how)
She can't help it


[Verse 2: Fergie]
Can't breathe, when you touch my sleeve
Butterflies so crazy, mmm-mmm

Whoa now, think I'm goin' down
Friends don't know what's with me, mmm-mmm
[Chorus: Fergie]
You got me trippin' (Oh), stumblin' (Oh), flippin' (Oh), fumblin'
So clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love (In - in, love - love)
You got me slippin' (Oh), tumblin' (Oh), sinkin' (Oh), crumblin'
So clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love (In - in, love - love)
So in love with you


[Refrain: Little Richard, Fergie]
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (Oh, no)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (Oh, please)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (Oh, no)
She can't help it

[Bridge: Fergie]
You know, this ain't the first time this has happened to me
This "love sick" thing

I like serious relationships, and, uh
A girl like me don't stay single for long
'Cause every time a boyfriend and I break up
My world is crushed and I'm all alone
The love bug comes right back up and bites me
And I'm back

[Refrain: Little Richard, Fergie]
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (In love)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (Oh, God)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (I'm back in love)
Can't help it (Ooh, whoo, ooh)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (I'm back in love now)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (I'm back in love now, baby)
She can't help it, the girl can't help it (I'm back in love now)
She can't help it (And now you got me)
[Chorus: Fergie]
You got me trippin' (Oh), stumblin' (Oh), flippin' (Oh), fumblin'
So clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love (In - in, love - love)
You got me slippin' (Oh), tumblin' (Oh), sinkin' (Oh), crumblin'
So clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love (In - in, love - love)
So in love with you

Clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love (In - in, love - love)
You got me slippin' (Oh), tumblin' (Oh), sinkin' (Oh), crumblin'
So clumsy 'cause I'm fallin' in love (In - in, love - love)

[Outro: Fergie]
So in love with you
So in love with you
So in love with you

What did Fergie say about "Clumsy"?
Genius Answer

I’m not a promiscuous girl – like I talk about in Clumsy, I’m always the girl with the boyfriend in serious relationships – but I do like to play with my sexuality. I don’t think that means I have to live in a morgue."
