Baby Bumble Bee (Australian Version)
"An Australian kids song from when I was at school..." -Monique
Baby Bumble Bee (Australian Version)
Children's Song
1. I've got myself a baby bumblebee,
Won't my mummy be so proud of me?
I've got myself a baby bumblebee,
Ouch! He stung me!
2. I'm squashing up my baby bumblebee,
Won't my mummy be so proud of me?
I'm squashing up my baby bumblebee,
Oh no, it's all over my hands!
3. I'm lickin' up my baby bumble bee
Won't my mummy be so proud of me?
I'm lickin' up my baby bumble bee
Oh no, I feel sick...
4. I'm throwing up my baby bumble bee,
Won't my mummy be so proud of me?
I'm throwing up my baby bumble bee,
Oh no, it's all over the floor!*
5. I'm mopping up my baby bumble bee,
Won't my mummy be so proud of me?
I'm mopping up my baby bumble bee,
Oh look! A butterfly!

Notes
*Alternative last line for 4th verse: "Oh yuck, what a mess!"
Amy wrote, "An alternative last line rather than 'Oh look a butterfly' is 'Ouch mummy smacked me' but we are probably not allowed to sing that version anymore because parents aren't allowed to smack their kids."
