If I Were a Bell
[Intro]
Mmm

[Verse 1]
Ask me how do I feel
Ask me now that we're cozy and clingin'
Well, sir, all I can say is
If I were a bell I'd be ringin'
From the moment we kissed good night
That's the way I've just got to behave
Boy, if I were a lamp I'd light
And if I were a banner I'd wave

[Verse 2]
Ask me how do I feel
Little me with my quiet upbringin'
Well, sir, all I can say is
If I were a gate I'd be swingin'
And if I were a watch I'd start
Poppin' my springs
Or if I were a bell I'd go
Ding, dong, ding, dong, ding

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Ask me how do I feel
From this chemistry lesson I'm learning
Well, sir, all I can say is
If I were a bridge I'd be burning
Well, I knew my morale would crack
From the wonderful way that you look
Boy, if I were a duck I'd quack
Or if I were a goose I'd be cooked
[Verse 4]
Ask me how do I feel
Ask me now that we're fondly caressin'
Well, if I were a salad
I know I'd be splashin' my dressin'
Ask me how to describe
This whole beautiful thing
Well, if I were a bell I'd go
Ding, dong, ding, dong, ding

[Outro]
Ding, dong, ding, dong
Ding, dong, ding, dong
If I were a bell
