D:
I've been leaving on my things
so in the morning when the morning bird sings
there's still dinner on my dinner jacket till the dinner bell rings
F:
I don't want a pizza I don't want a piece of peanut brittle I don't want a pear
I don't want a bagel I don't want a bean I wouldn't like a bag of beef or a beer
or a cup of chowder corn cake or creamed cauliflower
'cause I'm waiting for the dinner bell to do the bell thing

F:
I don't know whether I'd rather be having a bottle of vinegar
I don't know whether I'd rather be having an egg
I don't know whether I'd rather be having an order of bacon
or whether I'd rather be having a basket of garlic bread
I don't know whether I'd rather be having some pie
or saving my appetite
'cause I'm waiting for the dinner bell to do the bell thing
