We’ve been together for so long – it’s been nearly three days
We’ve talked and we’ve texted- liked you so many ways
We’ve had a good run – it’s time to depart
The late bell is ringing inside of my heart
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – that’s my signal to bolt
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – I’m not playin’ the fool

 It’s time for a change - Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling
I can’t be held down – got my music to sing
You’ll soon be over our little fling
But after three days, I’m spreading my wings
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – It’s like on the rocks
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – three days and apart

 Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling that’s my cue to move on
The late bell just sounded can’t you hear the alarm
I can’t be tied down – for love or forever
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – it’s now or never
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – I am late for class
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – you took all of my cash
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – give back my T-shirts
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – now, don’t even flirt

 We’ll pass in the street or maybe the hall
You’ll tell all your friends, all of my flaws
Three days together – you know me so well
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – that must be the bell
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – got my boys and the ball
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – shoulders back, standing tall

 Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – I can’t help but wonder
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – can I get your friend’s number

 Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – there’s no time to pout
Ring-a-ling  Ring-a-ling – ‘cause I’m three days and out!
