Paul Austin Kelly - Poor Bumble Bee Lyrics
The ants all threw a partyFor a Bumble Bee last nightAnd they served Black Beetle PuddingWhich was greeted with delightThe bumble bee did stuff himselfUntil he finally sworeThat unless they served him BrandyHe’d be headed for the door[Refrain :]Oh, Poor Bumble BeeSuch an invitation is rarely as it seemsOh, Poor Bumble BeeWishin’ this was all a bad dream.A worker ant was sent insideTo fetch the fiery stuffHe returned with half a bottleWhich he guessed would be enoughThat greedy bee he drained itAnd then demanded moreTill a gross inebriationKnocked his stinger to the floor[Refrain :]Oh, Poor Bumble BeeSuch an invitation is rarely as it seemsOh, Poor Bumble BeeWishin’ this was all a bad dream.The ants they fell upon him thenAnd carried him aloftAs the bee did blather drunkenlyAbout his bed so softThe hapless bee was listeningTo his palpitating heartAnd he hardly felt a thingWhen all the ants took him apart[Refrain :]Oh, Poor Bumble BeeSuch an invitation is rarely as it seemsOh, Poor Bumble BeeWishin’ this was all a bad dream.
