Reel Around The Fountain
[Verse 1]
It's time the tale were told
Of how you took a child
And you made him old

It's time the tale were told
Of how you took a child
And you made him old
You made him old

[Refrain 1]
Reel around the fountain
Slap me on the patio
I'll take it now
Oh...

[Chorus 1]
Fifteen minutes with you
Well, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people said that you were virtually dead
And they were so wrong

Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, well, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people said that you were easily led
And they were half-right
Oh, they ... oh, they were half-right, oh


[Verse 2]
It's time the tale were told
Of how you took a child
And you made him old

It's time that the tale were told
Of how you took a child
And you made him old
You made him old

[Refrain 1]
Oh, reel around the fountain
Slap me on the patio
I'll take it now
Ah... oh...

[Chorus 2]
Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people see no worth in you
Oh, but I do

Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people see no worth in you
I do
Oh, I ... oh, I do
Oh ...


[Verse 3]
I dreamt about you last night
And I fell out of bed twice
You can pin and mount me like a butterfly
But "take me to the haven of your bed"
Was something that you never said
Two lumps, please
You're the bee's knees
But so am I

[Refrain 2]
Oh, meet me at the fountain
Shove me on the patio
I'll take it slowly
Oh ...

[Chorus 3]
Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people see no worth in you
Oh, but I do

Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, no, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people see no worth in you
I do
Oh, I ... I do...
Oh, I do...
Oh, I do...
Oh, I do...
