Eric the Half-a-Bee
   
(spoken) Take it away Eric the Orchestra Leader
   
A-one, two, a-one two three four
   
Half a bee, philosophically,
Must, ipso facto, half not be.
But half the bee has got to be
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 dee dee, one two three,
Eric the half a bee.
A B C D E F G,
Eric the half a bee.
  
Is this wretched demi-bee,
Half-asleep upon my knee,
Some freak from a menagerie?
No! It's Eric the half a bee!
  
Fiddle de dum, Fiddle de dee,
Eric the half a bee.
Ho ho ho, tee hee hee,
Eric the half a bee.
  
I love this hive, employee-ee,
Bisected accidentally,
One summer afternoon by me,
I love him carnally.
  
He loves him carnally,
Semi-carnally.
  
The End
  
Cyril Connolly?
  
No, semi-carnally
  
Oh
Cyril Connoly (whistle)
