England - Heebeegeebee lyrics

The year was one and three when I broke free and landed on the earth Illegitimacy was meant for me at birth Boccaccio's voice: "Mother please, don't see this as a blotch on your dignity Men are wrong: they need to have a dose of humanity." It's the fourteenth century and Tuscany was growing fast and strong And they were pretty rich when Dante came along Boccaccio's voice: "Father please, I wanna be a writer of poetry I wanna be creative in art, you see." Father's voice: "Now pull yourself together and get working at the bank." HeeBeeGeeBee (x3) He be Giovanni Boccaccio (x2) By 1333 it dawned on me from years spent climbing rank It wasn't hard to see... the world of banking stank Boccaccio's voice: "Father please, I wanna be a writer of poetry I cannot carry on at the bank, you see." Father's voice: "So pull yourself together and you'll study Canon Law." She was the love of his life... Fiammetta He could not make her his wife... Fiammetta She lived a life of nobility... Fiammetta He found a poetic facility... Fiammetta Boccaccio's voice: "Father please, I'm very sad to hear of your bankruptcy. But now I'm doing well in the arts, you see... And life in swinging Naples is the only place for me." HeeBeeGeeBee (x3) He be Giovanni Boccaccio (x2) She was the love of his life... Fiammetta He could not make her his wife... Fiammetta She lived a life of nobility... Fiammetta He found a poetic facility... Fiammetta, the Flame, the Flame, the Flame Fiammetta's voice: "Dance with me, honmey, you will find lots of food for your hungry mind Love is fun, love, but just to be sure, I won't swap him for you and end up poor." Giovanni's response: "You dicka-doo, dicka-doo, dicka-doo (x2). I fell in love for evermore" Robert's response: "Blow away the cobwebs of a medieval mind Looking for the person that you know you'll never find Get the HeeBeeGeeBee's of a very different kind" She was the love of his life... Fiammetta He could not make her his wife... Fiammetta She lived a life of nobility... Fiammetta He found a poetic facility... Fiammetta, the Flame, the Flame, the Flame Doo-doo-doo, Doo-doo-doo-doo (x4). The Decameron Blow away the cobwebs of a medieval mind Looking for the person that you know you'll never find Get the HeeBeeGeeBee's of a very different kind He had a sense of humour. There's a rumour. Alleluyah! The Decameron
