this von needs to come back because i haven't eaten out for a week and am wearing increasingly bent glasses.

by julian's request, because he was so pleased with the galaxy song, more python songs.

Eric the Half-Bee

Half a bee, philosophically, 
must, ipso facto, half not be.
But half the bee has got to be,
vis a vis its entity - do 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, 1 2 3,
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 dee dum, fiddle dee dee,
Eric the half a bee.
Ho ho ho, tee hee hee,
Eric the half a bee.

I love this hive employee-ee-ee 
bisected accidentally
one summer afternoon by me
I love him carnally.

He loves him carnally...		
...semi-carnally

The end!

"Cyril Connelly?"
   
No!  Semi-carnally!

Oh...(softly) "Cyril Connelly"
