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
