If I were a bell…

If I were a bell Dinah Washington
[being a song that makes me feel happy]

Ask me how do I feel
Now that we’re cosy and clinging
Well sir all I can say is if I were a bell I’d be ringing!
From the moment we kissed goodnight
That’s the way I just gotta behave,
And if I were lamp I’d light
Or if I were a banner I’d wave.
Ask me how do I feel,
Little me with the quiet upbringing
Well sir all I can is if I were a gate I’d be swinging,
And if I were a watch I’d stop popping my spring
Oh and if I were a bell
I’d go ding dong ding dong ding.

Ask me how do I feel
From this chemistry lesson I’m learning
Well sir all I can is if I were a bridge I’d be burning!
Well I knew my morale would crack
From the wonderful way you looked
Boy if I were a duck I’d quack,
Or if I were a goose I’d be cooked.
Ask me how do I feel?
Now that we’re fondly caressing….
Pal if I were a salad,
I know I’d be splashing my dressing….
Or if I were a season I’d surely be spring
And if I were bell,
Say if I were a bell
If I were a bell I’d go ding dong ding dong ding!
