The Smiths Lyrics
"Reel Around The Fountain"

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

Reel around the fountain
Slap me on the patio
I'll take it now

Fifteen minutes with you
Well, I wouldn't say no
People said that you were virtually dead
And they were so wrong

Fifteen minutes with you
Well, I wouldn't say no
People said that you were easily led
And they were half-right
They were half-right

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

Reel around the fountain
Slap me on the patio
I'll take it now

Fifteen minutes with you
I wouldn't say no
People see no worth in you
But I do

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

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

Meet me at the fountain
Shove me on the patio
I'll take it slowly

Fifteen minutes with you
I wouldn't say no
People see no worth in you
But I do

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