Ring my bell
Ring my bell
Wonder could it be
Could it be for me
That's the sound I've been waiting for
Any time of day
He can come my way
When I open the door
I know that all is well
Every time I hear that bell
I can tell
Someone's at the door
I know who it is
Someone's back for more
I know who
By the way he rings my bell
I can always tell who is at my door
Ring my bell
Ring my bell
Everywhere I go
Always need to know
Is he waiting outside for me
So I hurry home
Really hurry home
When I open the door
I know that all is well
Every time I hear that bell
I can tell someone's at the door
I know who it is
Someone's back for more
I know who
By the way he rings my bell
I can always tell who is at my door
Ring my bell
Ring my bell
Waiting by the door
Wonder where he's been can stand it no more
Gonna let him in
If he comes inside
We'll do everything
I got on my mind
Repeat chorus to fade

Overall Meaning

In Billie Piper's song "Ring My Bell", she is eagerly anticipating the arrival of someone special who she knows is coming to see her. The sound of the doorbell ringing is what she has been waiting for as it signifies the presence of the person she is longing to see. She is ready to drop everything and hurry home to open the door for him. She can always tell who is ringing the bell simply by the way they do it. She is so excited to see him that she is willing to do everything on her mind once he comes inside.

The song can be interpreted in two ways - one as a romantic love lyric, with Billie eagerly waiting for her partner to arrive, and the other as a more sexual interpretation, with the doorbell representing a sexual urge she wants to fulfill. The doorbell is a motif for excitement and anticipation, which is reinforced throughout the song with the repetition of the lyrics "ring my bell".
