lyrics

Ring ding a ling dong bell sheepishly I'm joining your side
Sing, sing pretty mind as well, happily I venture inside

Big bright eyes, young and brave, perfect skin, have to win, it's no sin to have the skin you're in
Addictively sweet personality, heavenly soft to the touch and such fragility

Have to ring the bell, love you can't you tell?
Got to ring the bell, entrust the wishing well
Where I fell

Ring ding a ling dong bell, nervously i hope you approve
Sing, sing she's not one to sell, stick with me to get in the groove

Big bright eyes, young and brave, perfect skin, have to win, it's no sin to have the skin you're in
Addictively sweet personality, heavenly soft to the touch and such fragility

Have to ring the bell, heavenly in hell
Got to ring the bell, in your wishing well
Where I fell

Ring ding a ling dong bell, only in a song I can tell

(ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha giggle, giggle, giggle etc.)
