Tiptoe Through The Tulips Lyrics

Tiptoe through the window
By the window, that is where I'll be
Come tiptoe through the tulips with me

Oh, tiptoe from the garden
By the garden of the willow tree
And tiptoe through the tulips with me

Knee deep in flowers we'll stray
We'll keep the showers away
And if I kiss you in the garden, in the moonlight
Will you pardon me?
And tiptoe through the tulips with me

Yes, it certainly is a cover, but I'm ashamed to say I do not remember who the original song is by. But anyhow, god bless Tiny Tim, such a funny song and way of singing it!

My Interpretation

A simple song of love and admiration. Nothing complicated, straight and to the point. One of my favorite songs.

I think it is about aliens from outer space who probe Tiny's body

I love this song. The strange thing is that Tiny didn't write it. It's actually older than he was when he died.

Insidious has turned this into one creepy, creepy tune...

Leave Timmy alone. He was his own man; did his own thing; and had the balls to get out in front of a national audience knowing he couldn't sing a note. I say You Go, Guy! (Actually, he's dead, but he's with us in Tiny Tim spirit:)

Please enlighten me on how your post relates to this song being featured in an American horror film?

Nick Lucus was the origianl singer of this tune. And do NOT knock it. It's about the only time I actually enjoyed a moment with my father...we laughted our arses off watching Tiny Tim sing this on the Merv Griffin Show (or one of those types of shows). The other times were not musical....we used to watch The Benny Hill Show religously. As for Tiny Tim, he found a way to earn money without hurting anybody so more power to him! But, yes, he wasn't easy on the ears :)

This is one person's believed meaning of the " tiptoe through the..." which I think is NOT true: This week I looked at a video of this song, on youtube [dot] com.

One person's comment on the video said that the song was about-

[a person sneaking into an insane asylum, and kidnapping some kids that lived there].

Huh? Where did he or she find that story? I guess that since Tiny Tim's using falsetto on the song, + that Tiny Tom is sort of an eccentric, made at least one person think that there was a spooky, or odd, meaning behind the song. Nope. It's just a fun + unique song. Oh well, some people made up strange stories about "Louie, Louie" by The Kingsmen, too. Ha!

My Opinion

By " this one person", I mean: an unknown person. And yeah, I meant- Tiny Tim, not tiny tom.
