The Smiths - REEL AROUND THE FOUNTAIN (BBC) lyrics

rate me

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

Oh ...

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, I wouldn't say no

Oh, people said that you were easily led

And they were half-right

They ... they were half-right, oh

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

Oh ...

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, oh, I do

Oh ...

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

Oh ...

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

Oh, I do.

I ... oh, I do

Oh, I do

Oh, I do

Oh, I do
