Baby bumble bee song (a blast from the past)

The memory of this song was triggered by Sam eating a gingerbread biscuit with bumblebee icing. I just burst into song (with the actions). Mr Lisa sat in stunned silence, wondering what the hell I was on about (clearly not a song from his childhood).

This was a song from primary school (I don't remember the last time I sang it out loud, or even had the memory of it in my head). Anyway here's the song and the actions (as I remember them)

Action: reaching out to grab something and catch it between your hands
I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee
Won't my mommy be so proud of me?
I'm bringing home a baby bumblebee
Ouch! It stung me!

Action: squashing something between your hands

I'm squishing up my baby bumblebee
Won't my mommy be so mad at me?
I'm squishing up my baby bumblebee
Urgh, what a mess

Action: pretending to lick something off your hands

I'm licking up my baby bumblebee
Won't my mommy be so proud of me?
I'm licking up my baby bumblebee
Urgh, no salt!

Action: pretending to be sickI'm bleh-ing up my baby bumblebee

Won't my mommy be so proud of me?
I'm bleh-ing up my baby bumblebee
Ooh! What a mess!

Action: pretending to mop up the floor

I'm mopping up my baby bumblebee
Won't my mommy be so proud of me?
I'm mopping up my baby bumblebee
Ooh! No more baby bumblebee!
