Let The Bumble Be

(Written for Cousin Virginia Rehn.)

[ STUNG]...Knecht

One day I saw a bumble bee bumbling on a rose,

And as I stood admiring him he stung me on the nose.

My nose in pain, it swelled so large it looked like a potato,

So Daddy said, though Mother thought 'twas more like a tomato.

And now dear children this advice I hope you'll take from me,

And when you see a bumble bee just let that bumble be.
