Orchestra Leader:A-one, two, a-one two three four Leader: Half a bee, philisophically,
Must ipso facto half not be.
But half a bee has got to be
Vis a vis it's entity.-d'you see?
But can a bee be said to be
Or not to be an entire bee,
When half the bee is not a bee,
Due to some ancient injury.-
Singing!...
All sing: La di di, one two three,
Eric the Half a Bee.A B C D E F G,
Eric the Half a Bee. Leader: Is this wretched demi-bee,
Half asleep upon my knee,
Some freak from a menagerie?
All yell: No! It's Eric the Half a Bee.
All sing: Fiddle di dum, fiddle di dee,
Eric the Half a Bee.
Ho ho ho, tee hee hee,
Eric the Half a Bee. Leader: I love this hive employ-ee-ee,
Bisected accidentally,
One summer's afternoon by me,I love him carnally.
All sing: He loves him carnally... Leader: Semi-carnally.(speaks)
The End. Voice: Cyril Connolly? Leader: No, semi-carnally. Voice: Oh.
All sing: (
Quietly)
Cyril Connolly(
Ends with an elaborate whistle)
