verse 1
G
A humble little bumblebee
C G
one sultry summer day
G
Worked so hard he didn't see
A D
the cow that grazed his way
G
He learned about the cows too late
C G
he really hadn't known
G
the cow was there until she ate
D G
the flower he was on
verse 2
G
Well, to be a bee or not to be
C G
the bumblebee he said
G
"If I don't manage to get free,
A D
I'll probably end up dead"
G
Then he looked around
C G
to try to get away somehow
G
and he found that he was surrounded by
D G
the insides of a cow
C G
Poor little bumblebee
C G
hard work was his down fall
C G
that's how he got surrounded by
D G
the cow's thick stomach walls
verse 3
G
Vengence cried the bumble bee
C G
Vengence on this cow
G
I'll sting her cause she swallowed me
A D
but I can't sting her now.
G
I'm weak, i'm tired, my pep is sapped
C G
I can't sting her like I should
G
I think I'll take a little nap
D G
and then I'll sting her good
verse 4
G
And so the bee fell fast asleep
C G
and slept for hours and hours
G
in order that he might rebuild
A D
his weakened stinging powers
G
But in the end this proved too unwise
C G
you see he slept too long
G
when he woke to his surprise
D G
he found the cow was gone
C G
Poor little bumblebee
C G
you see he slept too long
C G
and now he'll never get revenge
D G
because the cow has gone
Outro
