Well my dear, what long arms you have

All the better to hold you down

Slap my wrist with that sweet consequence.

What are we

What are we to do

What are we to do with you

Hey hey

What are we

What are we to do

What are we to do with you.

Well I am

I'm ready to be new again

I'm ready to hear you say

Oh I am

It's quite enough (quite enough)

Well I am

I'm ready to be new again

I'm ready to hear you say

Oh I am

It's quite enough (quite enough)

Well my dear what deep roots you have (all the better to)

All the better to hold you down

We live inside your branches, your family nests

Asks boy where have you been

Well you don't know where I've been.

What are we to (to do with you)

What are we to (to do with you)

I am

I'm ready to be new again

I'm ready to hear you say

Oh I am

It's quite enough (quite enough)

Well I am

I'm ready to be new again

I'm ready to hear you say

Oh I am

It's quite enough (quite enough)

Don't know where I've been

Don't know where I've been.

Well my dear what long arms you have

All the better to hold you down.

I'm ready to hear you say

Oh I am

It's quite enough

Well I am

I'm ready to be new again

I'm ready to hear you say

Oh I am

It's quite enough (quite enough)

And you don't know where I've been

No you don't know where I've been

You don't know where I've been

You don't know where

You don't know where

No...

I'm ready to be new again

I'm ready to hear you say

Oh I am

It's quite enough (quite enough)

Well I am,

I'm ready to hear you say

Oh I am

It's quite enough (quite enough)
