Reel Around the Fountain (Troy Tate Reel) - The Smiths

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, 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

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

Oh, reel around the fountain

Slap me on the patio

I’ll take it now

Ah… 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, I … 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

Oh, 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, 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…
