I got up late this morning

The future had no charm

I noticed my alarm clock wasn't wownd

The door bell and the phone were disconnected

And people I expected weren't around

So I said to myself where's the reason

Then I looked at my cellphone and said

There's the reason

A song doesn't sing by itself

A bell doesn't ring by itself

Ring the bell

It's a glorious sound people gather around

And start to cheer and the cheers start to swell

Don't hide your head in a trough

Just get up and haul off and ring the bell

Dreams that dwell in the back of your eyes

They'll materialize

If you get up and get out of your shell

You can't depend upon fate

Or your height or your weight

To ring the bell

There's a grind stone for your nose

There's a tree top for your toes

Don't stay home and decompose

Just get out and get going

Where a go-getter goes

Who can tell if you've missed a few meals

If you're down at the heels

Put on a well-to-do smile

You'll do well

When it's a crime to get up

That's the time to get up and ring the bell

And it's like I always say

Don't do anything halfway

There's a time for work and play

Don't put off til tomorrow what you could do today

Ring the bell

Be the earliest bird

Why it's simply absurd

How much a wide awake look can compel

When it's a crime to get up

That's the time to get up

You got to clime to get up

And ring and ring the bell
