Tubby The Tuba

(album: The Manhattan Transfer Meets Tubby The Tuba - 1995)

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
How unhappy I would be
Me and I, oh my

[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!
