lyrics

Doo wah dee, yah dee dum,
Doo wah dee, yah dee dum.

I wake to find the day begun without me,
I draw upon my recollections of what's gone before.
Happily, I had forgotten all my aspirations,
Now, a hare for jugging, they come flooding back to fill my lungs.

Oh.

Hee hee hee, ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Doo wah dee, yah dee dum,
Doo wah dee, yah dee dum.

It's out now with the hand bells,
Yeah, we'll play a quarter peal,
And we'll never repeat ourselves,
Never repeat ourselves, never repeat ourselves.

Hee hee hee, hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo.

Oooooohooooh.
Oooooohooooh.

Doo wah dee, yah dee dum,
Doo wah dee, yah dee dum.
