Merrily ring the luncheon bell!
Merrily ring the luncheon bell!
Here in meadow of asphodel,
Feast we body and mind as well,
Merrily ring the luncheon bell! |

Oh merrily ring the luncheon bell! |
| Oh, ring, |
Oh merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, |
Oh, merrily ring the luncheon bell,
The luncheon bell! |
Merrily ring the luncheon bell,
The luncheon bell! |
| Blanche. |
Hunger, I beg to state,
Is highly indelicate.
This is a fact profoundly true,
So learn your appetites to subdue. |
| Chorus. |
Yes, yes,
We'll learn our appetites to subdue! |
| Cyril. |
Madam, your words so wise,
Nobody should despise,
Curs'd with an appetite keen I am,
And I'll subdue it,
I'll subdue it,
I'll subdue it with cold roast lamb! |
| First Sopranos. |
Second Sopranos. |
Yes, yes,
We'll subdue it with cold roast lamb!
Merrily ring the luncheon bell!
Merrily ring the luncheon bell!
|
Yes, yes,
We'll subdue it with cold roast lamb!
Merrily ring the luncheon bell!
Merrily ring the luncheon bell! |
| Oh, ring, |
Oh, merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, |
Oh, merrily ring the luncheon bell,
The luncheon bell! |
Merrily ring the luncheon bell,
The luncheon bell! |
