Hmmmmm

Hmmm

Is it a bird, is it a plane, is it a busy bee a buzzin’
Is he insane or just in pain? No it’s just my hubby, humming.

He hums when he is happy and he hums when he is sad
He’s blummin’ hummin’ all the time and it drives me blummin’ mad!

He hums along to programme tunes and adverts on TV
He’s even started humming in the middle of his tea!

He says he’s got an orchestra playing in his head
And not having any instrument he’s hums along instead.

Is it a classic, is it a symphony hummed in monotone?
A masterpiece of music, but sounding like a drone?

Although it does my head in, I hope the day will never come
When all I hear is silence… then I’ll miss that blummin’ hum
