Product Description

This is an entertaining song about a flea. Originally a solo Lied and is now arranged for 3 parts. SSA or TBB.
This piece shows that Beethoven had a sense of humour. Can be a good encore piece and allows for some simple comical acting.

There once was a king
Who had a large flea
Whom he loved not a little,
Just like his own son.
He summoned his tailor,
The tailor appeared:
'Here - make robes for this knight
And make him breeches too!'

In silk and satin
The flea was now attired,
With ribbons on his coat,
And a medal too,
And became a minister straightaway
And wore an enormous star.
His brothers and his sisters
Became grand at court as well.

And courtly lords and ladies
Were most grievously plagued,
Queen and maid-in-waiting
Were bitten and stung,
Yet they were not allowed
To squash or scratch them away -
We bow and scrape and suffocate,
As soon as any bite.
