[Intro]

[Verse 1]
One less bell to answer
One less egg to fry
One less man to pick up after
I should be happy
But all I do is cry
Cry, cry, no more laughter
Oh, why did he go?
Since he left, my life's so empty
Though I try to forget
It just can't be done
Each time the doorbell rings
I still run
I don't know how in the world
To stop thinking of him
'Cause I still love him so
I end each day the way I start out
Crying my heart out

[Verse 2]
One less bell to answer
One less egg to fry
One less man to pick up after
No more laughter
No more laughter
Since he went away
Since he went away
Since he went
I've got one less bell to answer... (Sigh)
