Whiling away the passing hours, pinching all the pollen from the cauliflowers
G                Am7            D7                      G7
I'd like to be a busy busy bee, being just as busy as a bee can be
C                       F             C                                       G7  C
Flying round the garden sweetest ever seen, taking back the honey to the dear old queen

C                F       C     C                         G7        C
Making hay while time is ripe, building up the honeycomb just like tripe
G                Am7            D7                      G7

Visiting the picnics quite a little tease, raising little lumps upon the boy-scout's knees
G                Am7            D7                      G7

To be able to be one must contrive for bees in a beehive must behive
    G                Am7      D7                       G7
But maybe I wouldn't be a bee bees are all right when alive, you see
C                     F                     C                     G7      C
But when bees die you really should see 'em pinned on a card in a mucky museum
