Текст The Manhattan Transfer – Tubby The Tuba

Tubby wants to play the violins’ tune, but it’s too light and flimsy for a big tuba. He ends up squashing the little tune, and the conductor sends him away. Tubby wanders forlornly to the edge of a pond where he meets a Bullfrog. The Bullfrog teaches him a new song that becomes Tubby’s very own melody

Tubby (Tim Hauser):
Alone am I, me and I together
If I went away from me

Bullfrog (Alan Paul):
Bug-Gup! Bug-Gup!
Lovely evening!
Bug-Gup! Bug-Gup!
I said «lovely evening!»
Clunk! Clunk! Clunk!
I said, «Bee-ooh-tiful evening!»
Hello! Bug-Gup!
Hello! Bug-Gup!
Hello!
