CHORUS
It was like a fairy spell
Captured by a sounding bell
Arrested to a loving cell
Where I yearned to forever dwell
1
Who created this shell
Turning into hell
When little heat yell?
I swear I hear the bell
Which sounded like a spell
And made my heart swell
For all to see and tell
So I’ll tell about the spell
CHORUS
It was like a fairy spell
Captured by a sounding bell
Arrested to a loving cell
Where I yearned to forever dwell
2
If I could foretell
This shell would be hell
I’d still board the shell
And still feel the hell
After enduring the beauteous cell
Because in so deep I fell
That all eyes could tell
Because my eyes and mouth did it yell
CHORUS
It was like a fairy spell
Captured by a sounding bell
Arrested to a loving cell
Where I yearned to forever dwell
3
Who could me compel?
When great words were in the shell
And a great bed was housed in its cell
As a great light blinded from its hell?
Those who foretold were asked not to tell
True seers were all sent to hell
Until the spell got broken in the shell
So I think of the shell as hell as I reminisce the initial bell
CHORUS
It was like a fairy spell
Captured by a sounding bell
Arrested to a loving cell
Which I yearned to forever dwell

Oh! I have a writing for you then
Imagine a world with only the sun
There won’t be darkness for eyes to close
There won’t be night for the moon to come
There won’t be stars to tag along
Darkness and light make a great team
A little darkness gives the sun some rest
So think positively and have a drink
