Be my little baby bumble bee (Buzz around, buzz around, keep a-buzzin' 'round) Bring home all the honey, love, to me (Little bee, little bee, little bee) Let me spend the happy hours Roving with you 'mongst the flow'rs And when we get where no one else can see (Cuddle up, cuddle up, cuddle up) Be my little baby bumble bee (Buzz around, buzz around, keep a-buzzin' 'round) We'll be just has happy as can be (You and me, you and me, you and me) Honey, keep a-buzzin', please I've got a dozen cousin bees But I want you to be my baby bumble bee

Here is the Beehive
Here is a beehive. Where are the bees? Hidden away where nobody sees. Soon they come creeping out of the hive (have one bee peek out) 1-2-3-4-5! BUZZ! (bring each finger out as you count) (make your bees fly all around the hive)
