I’m falling asleep but rattled this off. It needs sorting. I’ll do that in the morning.
Lyrics
Hey there look at me
I am just the humble bee
Buzzing round doing my thing
Doing stuff and trying to sing
But every time I do it comes out’buzz’
Hey there hear my tune
Zooming round like a loon
I pick my chords and start a jam
Its going well I think but bam
Everyone says I’m going ‘buzz’
I feel upset
I feel deflated.
I feel insulted
I feel under-rated.
I’m a singeryou know
With not a bad ear
But it seems
No-one can hear.
All they seem to think I do is ‘buzz. ‘
Yes ….
I buzz you say
But that’s not right
You think I buzz
And well I might
But I’m a singer
So I try you see
To enunciate
quite carefully
And sing of things
both sweet and true
one do them justice
So you’d think ‘ooh
‘That sounds delightful
A singing bee’’
( but …)
I’ve studied hard
I’ve practised well
Vocal warm ups
But you can’t tell
You see a bee
You hear a drone
I sing tunefully
You hear a monotone
I relate stories
With imagery
So besutiful
In oretty keys
And modes tgat
Show my range and taste
To think me plain
It’s such a waste.
To think my talent
Begins and Ends with Zzzzzz
A single tone
Without any jizz
When no ..
If you would live one day like me
You d know i live in harmony
And add my notes
With sonic receptivity -
To the ambience of
Cosmic positivity
-and to think all you think I do is buzz!
I sing out loud
And sing ouclear
And tenderly
And without fear
No amplification
And no fuzz
That what you hear
And perceive it as s buzz
