Old Mr.
Mackle Hackle


Thanks
to my nephews!
During a
long commute to a full time job I had (writing music for Atari
Games) this melody bubbled up, and buzzed around in my head
for weeks after that. The words were revealing themselves gradually,
but it wasn't til a trip to Minneapolis to visit my sister and
her family that they came into focus. My nephews Kyle and Evan
joined me in thinking up ideas for the ending 'slap' and the
ending that follows. Thanks, guys!

Mosquito

I'm just a
tiny mosquito
Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz
Buzzing you all night long
I'm just a tiny mosquito
Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz
Buzzing my favorite song
Late at night, I need a bite, I'm hungry
I depend on a warm blooded friend
Oh, I'm just a tiny mosquito
Buzz buzz buzz, buzz buzz, buzz buzz
Everytime
I see the covers slip
Hear the snoring lip
Just a little sip
They will hardly know I'm even there, no, they won't miss a drip
How sweet the nectar that the humans bring
It's a lovely spring! Gives me cause to sing
I'm the luckiest bug in the air!
I'm just a
tiny mosquito
Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz
Buzzing you all night long
I'm just a tiny mosquito
Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz
Buzzing my favorite song
It's a charming refrain in a light-hearted vein
It's a tune that gets under your skin
Oh, I'm just a tiny mosquito
Buzz buzz buzz, buzz buzz, buzz buzz
I watch a
lady take the evening air
She brushes back her hair
Look, her arm is bare
And her fragrance is intoxicating, she's pulsing with life
I swoop and dive and dodge her clumsy hand
Find a place to land
Oh, this game is grand!
I'm the luckiest bug in the air!
I'm just a
tiny mosquito
Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz
Buzz buzz buzz, buzz buzz buzz buzz
Buzzzzzzzzzz....(SLAP!)
...You missed
me - Bloody good try...
Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz!
