Eric the Half-a-Bee

Monty Python

Half a bee, philosophically,
Must ipso facto half not be.
But half a bee has got to be
Vis a vis it's 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.

La di di, 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 di dum, fiddle di dee,
Eric the Half-a-Bee.
Ho ho ho, tee hee hee,
Eric the Half-a-Bee.
