Carol of the Bells
Mr.Mackey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hark! Hear the bells, sweet silver bells,
All seem to say, ding dong, m'kay.
Christmas is here, bringing good cheer,
To young and old, meek and the bold.
Ding-dong-ding-dong, that is their song,
With joyful ring, all caroling

One seems to hear, words of the cheer
From everywhere, filling the air, m'kay
Oh, how they pound, raising the sound
Or here and there, telling their tale
Gaily they ring, while People sing
Songs of the cheer, Christmas is here

On, on they send, on without end
Their joyful tone, to every home
Hark! Hear the bells, sweet silver bells
All seem to say, ding dong, m'kay
On, on they send, on without end




Their joyful tone, to every home.
Ding-dong-ding-dong m'kay-m'kay-m'kay, m'kay!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics for Mr. Mackey's version of Carol of the Bells are simple yet catchy. The song starts with the sound of sweet silver bells with the message 'Hark! Hear the bells' followed by the repetitive phrase 'ding dong, m'kay.' This phrase represents the sound of the bells, which is an onomatopoeia. The song is expressing the joy of Christmas and how it brings happiness to both young and old alike. The sound of the bells is so joyful that it seems to be filling the air and can be heard from everywhere.


The second verse talks about the pounding of the bells and how they tell their tale of Christmas. The phrasing 'gaily they ring while people sing' shows that the bells are spreading joy and are creating an atmosphere of happiness for everyone. The final verses talk about how the bells send their joyful tone to every home and end with the signature phrase 'm'kay,' which is a catchphrase commonly used by Mr. Mackey on the show.
