You Told Them I Was Funny | Avelina Rae (Official Music Video)

You Told Them I Was Funny - Avelina Rae. A happy country song about overhearing the person you love describe you to somebody else. New original country music, 2026. She was still in the hallway with her coat on when she heard his brother ask what she's like. He took long enough answering that she stopped moving. He could have said the easy thing. He said she is funny. He said she is the one who makes his sister laugh. When she was seventeen a boy said funny like it was a consolation prize. He said it like it was the best part. She has never told him she heard it. If he knew, he would know to say it, and then it would not count. Tell me in the comments the nicest thing you ever overheard about yourself. I read them. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ LYRICS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ [Verse 1] I was in the hallway with my coat still on, half in and half out of the door And you were in the kitchen with your brother and you did not know I was home He asked you what she's like, and you took long enough that I stopped moving And I have never in my life listened to anything that hard [Pre-Chorus] You could have said the easy thing, the one that people say You could have said she's pretty and I would not have minded [Chorus] But you told them I was funny You told them I am the one who makes your sister laugh You told them that I fix things that I have got no business fixing And that I am never once boring on a Tuesday There were a hundred things that you could have picked And you picked the ones I would have picked You told them I was funny And I have not said a word about it since [Post-Chorus] Not a word (not a word) I have not said a word [Verse 2] When I was seventeen a boy said funny like it was a consolation Like it was what you get called when you are not the other thing And I carried that around so long I built a whole personality on it And then you said it like it was the best part [Pre-Chorus] And you were not performing, you did not know that I could hear you Which is the only reason that I believed a word [Chorus] 'Cause you told them I was funny You told them I am the one who makes your sister laugh You told them that I fix things that I have got no business fixing And that I am never once boring on a Tuesday There were a hundred things that you could have picked And you picked the ones I would have picked You told them I was funny And I have not said a word about it since [Bridge] I am not going to tell you that I heard it Because then you would know to say it, and it would not count So I am just going to go on being it On purpose For as long as you keep not knowing that I know [Verse 3] And you came out of the kitchen and you said hey, you're home And I said yeah, and I hung my coat up like a normal person [Chorus] And you told them I was funny You told them I am the one who makes your sister laugh You told them that I fix things that I have got no business fixing And that I am never once boring on a Tuesday There were a hundred things that you could have picked And you picked the ones I would have picked You told them I was funny And I am gonna be funny for the rest of my life [Outro] Not a word (not a word) Not a word (not a word) You told them I was funny And I have not said a word ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Music and lyrics by Avelina Rae.
