Squeeze Bees - Ivor Cutler

A blind man sat on the top of a tree

And he sang in a voice like milk

I’m looking for a beautiful girl sang he

With brown hair and red cheeks

A lady who can climb trees

And squeeze bees for their honey

A blind girl sat at the foot of a tree

And she sang with a voice like cream

I’m looking for a beautiful man sang she

With grey hair and grey eyes

Who can sit at the foot of a tree

And squeeze me for my honey

Each listened to the song the other one sang

And their hearts were filled with glee

He shinned down the tree and sat on her knee

And she squeezed a bee and he squeezed her

And there was plenty of honey

Not the same as money but ok
