Here is The Beehive - Lyrics

Here is the beehive,
Where are the bees?
Hidden away where nobody sees.
Watch and you'll see them come out of the hive. One...two...three...four...five!
Buzz...buzz...buzz...buzz...buzz.

Here is the beehive,
Where are the bees?
Hidden away where nobody sees.
Watch and you'll see them land on the floor.
One...two...three...four!
Buzz...buzz...buzz...buzz.

Here is the beehive,
Where are the bees?
Hidden away where nobody sees.
Watch and you'll see them come out of the tree.
One...two...three! Buzz...buzz...buzz.

Here is the beehive, Where are the bees?
Hidden away where nobody sees.
Watch and you'll see them come out of the hive. One...two...three...four...five.
Buzz...buzz...buzz...buzz...buzz.
Buzzzzzzzzz...they've all flown away!
