[Verse 1]
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
[Refrain]
Reel around the fountain
Slap me on the patio
I'll take it now
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
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
They, hey
They were half-right, oh
[Verse 2]
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
[Refrain]
Reel around the fountain
Slap me on the patio
I'll take it now
Ah, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Refrain]
Oh, meet me at the fountain
Shove me on the patio
I'll take it slowly
Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
[Chorus 3]
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
[Outro]
Ha, hey, oh, I do
Oh-oh, I do
Oh, I do
Oh, I do, oh
