[00:51.23]Well time she did as time she does
[00:57.58]She passed along her way
[01:03.51]And dawn she crept like a frightened girl
[01:09.93]Out from the night time’s sway
[01:16.81]But in the merry month of May
[01:22.88]A solemn fact does lurk
[01:29.19]For Spring it sprang as Spring it does
[01:35.26]And put the bees to work
[01:42.21]
[02:32.92]And work they must
[02:35.83]And work they shall
[02:39.53]For all the things to grow
[02:45.19]For if they don’t as time she knows
[02:51.60]They’d wither on the bough
[02:58.35]And what a shame such things would be
[03:04.55]No wondrous wine for you and me
[03:10.97]No cider too, nor mead nor soup
[03:17.04]For us to all make merry
[03:22.49]
[03:50.00]So rot, ferment and decompose
[03:56.55]So all the things can grow
[04:02.76]Or wallow in a drinkless world
[04:09.05]And wither on the bough
[04:15.52]Oh what a dusty burden
[04:18.42]That nectar and that pollen
[04:21.74]Like Atlas with the heavens
[04:24.61]On the back of his head
[04:28.27]And what if they should falter
[04:30.83]And shrug their little shoulders?
[04:34.28]Well time she’d pass all the same
