In the sleepy town of Suananita there's a story that a padre tells
Of a gay senor and senorita and the serenade of the bells
Seems they asked a padre for permition to be married early in the spring
But their folks had made just one condition that the mission bells had to ring
Everyone knew the bells were broken and haven't sounded in a long long time
Then one night the village was astounded the bells began to chime
Still the bells are broken goes the story but if in your heart a true love dwells
They will ring for you in all their glory that's the serenade of the bells
Still the bells are broken...
