R U Ready
Godfrey Birtill Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Are you ready ready ready? A ring a ding a ding a ding...
Are you ready ready ready? A ring a ding a ding a ding...
Are you ready ready ready? A ring a ding a ding a ding
a ding a ding a ding a ding.
Glory in the kitchen... Glory in the Hall
Glory in the Living room... Dining room and all
Glory in the bathroom... Angels sing
Glory in the bedroom... Sweet sleeping
Glory in the garage... Glory in the lounge
The glory of the Lord's all over the house.
Glory in the restaurant... Glory in the pub
Glory in prison... Glory in the club
Glory in the shops... Glory in the park
Glory in the bank and the cinema
Glory in the dentists checking out your teeth
The glory of the Lord is falling in the streets.
Glory on the Bus... Glory on the Train
Glory in the car... Glory on the plane
Glory when I run... Glory when I hike
Glory when I swim... Glory on my bike




Glory going to play... Glory going to work
The glory of the Lord is covering the earth
