If I Were a Bell
[Intro]
Are you alright?
Am I alright?
Ask me how do I feel
Ask me now that we're cozy and clinging

[Verse 1]
Well, sir, all I can say is if I were a bell
I'd be ringing
From the moment we kissed tonight
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
Ask me how do I feel
Little me with my quiet upbringing
Well, sir, all I can say, is if I were a gate
I'd be swinging
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

[Verse 2]
Ask me how do I feel
From this chemistry lesson I'm learning (Chemistry?)
Well sir, all I can say is if I were a bridge, I'd be burning
Yes, I knew my morale would crack
From the wonderful way that 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
Ask me now that we're fondly caressing
Pal, if I were a salad
I know I'd be splashing my dressing
Ask me how to describe this whole beautiful thing
Well, if I were a bell, I'd go ding-dong-ding-dong-ding
