My dear, what long arms you have
(All the better to)
All the better to hold you down
Slap my wrists with that sweet consequence

What are we
What are we to do
What are we to do with you?
What are we
What are we to do
What are we to do with you?

I am, I am ready to be new again
I'm ready to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
(Quite enough)
I am, I am ready to be new again
I'm ready to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
(Quite enough)

My dear, what deep roots you have
(All the better to)
All the better to hold you down
We'll live inside the branches
Of your families nest, I said
"Boy, where have you been?"
Cause you don't know where I've been

What are we to(to do with you)
What are we to do with you?

I am, I am ready to be new again
I'm ready to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
(Quite enough)
I am, I am ready to be new again
I'm ready to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
(Quite enough)

Don't know where I've been
Don't know where I've been
Don't know where I've been
(My dear, what long arms you have
All the better to hold you down)

I am, I am ready to be new again
I'm ready to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
(Quite enough)
I am, I am ready to be new again
I'm ready to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
(Quite enough)

Don't know where I've been
No you don't know where I've been
You don't know where I've been

I am, I am ready to be new again
I'm ready to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
(Quite enough)
I am, I am ready to be new again
I'm ready to hear you say
Who I am is quite enough
(Quite enough)
