Eric The Half A Bee (Monty Python Sings) - Monty Python

A-one, a-two, a-one, two, three, four

(Spoken):

Half-a-bee, philosophically

Must ipso-facto half not-be

But half the bee, has got to bee

Vis-a-vis its 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…

La di di, a-one-two-three

Eric The Half-A-Bee

Eric The Half-A-Bee

Is this a-wretched demi-bee

Half asleep upon my knee

Some freak from a managerie?

NO!

It’s Eric The Half-A-Bee!

A-fiddle-di-dum, a-fiddle-di-dee

Eric The Half-A-Bee

Ho-ho-ho, tee-hee-hee

Eric The Half-A-Bee

I love this hive employ-e-e

Bisected accidentally

One summer afternoon by me

I love him carnally

He loves him carnally

Semi-carnally.

The end

(Spoken):

Cyril Connolly?

No, semi-carnally

Oh

(Sings): Cyril Connolly
