Oh what a glorious thing to be,
A healthy, grown-up busy busy bee;
Whiling away the passing hours,
Pinching all the pollen from the cauliflowers.
I’d like to be a busy busy bee,
Being just as busy as a bee can be.
Flying ‘round the garden, brightest ever seen,
Taking back the honey to the dear old queen.
Bzz, bzz, bzz, bzz, honey bee, honey bee,
Bzz if you like but don’t sting me!
I hope this is right: transcribed from memory;
