The Manhattan Transfer - Tubby the Tuba lyrics

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-oo-tiful evening!" Hello! Bug-Gup! Hello! Bug-Gup! Hello!
