The Smiths - Reel Around the Fountain

Okay, another Smiths one,

because, why not?

This is what It May All End Tomorrow has to say about it :

"the lyrics are typical Morrissey; plagiarism (see Sources), unsubtle sexual references, and a deep undercurrent of romanticism.
The way that such a basely puerile a song is presented within a framework of a love song (harmonic slow-tempo balladry) is just excellent; the first time you hear it, you think "what a nice song"; it's only when you listen to the lyrics that you realise that the song is about sexual desire, and nothing more."

So it's not a cheesy love song, but it sounds like one...
I probably should have posted there is a light that never goes out
but I'll stop here with The Smiths for now.









It's time the tales were told
Of how you took a child
And you made him old
Reel around the fountain
Slap me on the patio
I'll take it now

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

 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 

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

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
 Fifteen minutes with you
Oh, I wouldn't say no
Oh, people see no worth in you
Oh, but I do.
