The Bells Are Ringing
By: They Might Be Giants
Year: 1996

Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is bringing the people 'round (Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong)

They hear the instructions They follow directions They travel great distances to the sound (Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong)

The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is bringing the people 'round (The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is [Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong])

They hear the instructions They follow directions They travel great distances to the sound (Bringing the people 'round They travel great distances to the sound [Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong])

They are persuaded by the music of the bells They're not responsible for anything they do (No) The people know (No) The way to go The bells are ringing, they hear the sound

They hear the sound (they hear the sound) They hear the sound (they hear the sound) They hear the sound (they hear the sound) They hear the sound

The bells are ringing and Everyone's walking With arms extended in a trance Forgetting their washing Neglecting their children they're dropping all businesses at hand

A voice is telling them to act a different way They tilt their heads so they won't miss what it will say (No) And when it's so (No) There's this to know The bells are ringing, they hear the sound

The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is bringing the people 'round (Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong)

They hear the instructions They follow directions They travel great distances to the sound (Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong)

They are persuaded by the music of the bells They're not responsible for anything they do (No) The people know (No) The way to go The bells are ringing, they hear the sound

A girl with cotton in her ears Is shielded from the bells' effect As if by hidden signal The people turn to face her One thousand eyes are staring They pull away her earplugs

The bells are pealing And they're revealing The simple key to happiness (Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong) It isn't evil It isn't good It's only what the people miss (Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong)

The bells explain what they've been lacking all along They were disorganized and that was what was wrong (No) And now they know (No) The way to go The bells are ringing, they hear the sound

The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is bringing the people 'round (The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is [Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong])

They hear the instructions They follow directions They travel great distances to the sound (Bringing the people 'round The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is [Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong])

The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is bringing the people 'round (Bringing the people 'round The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is [Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong])

They hear the instructions They follow directions They travel great distances to the sound (Bringing the people 'round The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is [Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong])

The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is bringing the people 'round (Bringing the people 'round The bells are ringing The song they're singing The sound is [Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong])

They hear the instructions They follow directions They travel great distances to the sound (Bringing the people 'round [Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong]) Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong Bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong bong
