Tubby The Tuba - Lyrics by Manhattan Transfer


Lyrics

Tubby wants to play the violins' tune, but it's too light and flimsy for a big tuba. he ends up squashing the little tune, and the conductor sends him away. tubby wanders forlornly to the edge o
Ond where he meets a bullfrog. the bullfrog teaches him a new song that becomes tubby's very own melody.

Tubby (tim hauser)
Alone am i, me and i together.
If i went away from me,
How unhappy i would be,
Me and i, oh my.


Bullfrog (alan paul)
Bug-gup! bug-gup!
Lovely evening!
Bug-gup! bug-gup!
I said. "lovely evening!"
Clunk! clunk! clunk!
I said, "bee-oo-tiful evening!"
Hello! bug-gup!
Hello! bug-gup!
Hello!
