The Critters' biggest hit (#17, October 1966).  Singer/composer Don Ciccone
would join the revamped Four Seasons lineup several years later; that's him
singing the 'I felt a rush...' bridge on 'December, 1963'.  -- AWR

Verse 2:

	And when the leaves begin to fall
	Answering old winter's call
	I feel my tears, they fall like rain
	Weeping forth the sad refrain
	Blue, dark, and dim it may seem
	You mark a grin, a moonbeam
	Brightens your smile, pray tell me
	How all the while you can be
	So mystifyingly glad
	I'm Mr. Dieingly Sad

Verse 3 (abbreviated):

	Then the tide rolls up to shore
	I whisper low, "I love you more

	I'm so mystifyingly glad
	Not Mr. Dieingly Sad
