[Intro – Warm Summer Birds, Buzzing Bees, Playful Kalimba] [Female Whisper – Sweet and Innocent] Wake up, sunshine… The flowers are dancing. Come join the circle… Nobody’s asking. [Small Giggle] [Village Chorus – Cheerful] Good morning! We missed you! [Female Whisper – Suddenly Unsettling] We never let you leave. [Verse 1 – Playful, Bouncy Female Vocal] Skip through the meadow, clap to the beat, Daisies are tapping their little green feet. Buttercup crowns and honey on toast, Everybody’s dancing… except for the ghost. [Pre-Chorus – Building Tribal Percussion] One for the flower, Two for the bee, Three for the secret You gave to me. [Chorus – Catchy, Happy, Uncanny] Happy, happy, can’t you see? Everybody belongs to the bee! [Hook – Full Village Chorus] Welcome to the happiest haunt! Clap your hands! Stamp your feet! Smile like you mean it! Move to the beat! [Deep Male Chant] YOU LOOK SO HAPPY. [Female – Sweetly] That’s the point. [Drop – Heavy Trance Bass, Kalimba Hook, Tribal Drums] Buzz, buzz, honeybee! Come and dance beside me! Round and round the old oak tree, There’s a little room for three! [Village Chorus] HEY! HEY! THE SUN WON’T SET! HEY! HEY! NOT FINISHED YET! [Female Whisper] Why is your shadow dancing without you? [Verse 2 – Quirky, Increasingly Strange] The moon wears yellow, the sky wears green, The strangest little party you’ve ever seen. The fiddler has six fingers, the drummer has nine, And everybody’s laughing at exactly the same time. Lemonade bubbling, bees spell your name, Everybody knows you, but nothing’s the same. Mother says supper, but nobody can say Who invited you here, or why you can’t go away. [Pre-Chorus – Rising Tension] Close your eyes, count to four, When you wake, you’ll want some more. [Female Whisper – Counting] One… Two… Three… [All Voices – Abruptly] WE LOST THE FOUR! [Beat Cuts – Silence, Then a Tiny Giggle] [Second Drop – Bigger Bass, Distorted Male Chants] Round and round, we never stop! Shake your bones and watch them hop! [Female and Village Chorus – Call and Response] Laugh a little! Dance a lot! Is it summer? IS IT NOT? [Deep Male Chant] THE HAPPIEST HAUNT! [Female Whisper] You can check out anytime… [Pause] But why would you? [Bridge – Music Box, Wooden Flute, Minimal Beat] Little bee, don’t sting my hand, I only came to see the band. Little bee, why do you cry? [Small, Distant Sob] [Female Whisper] Who put the little girl inside? [Final Build – Layered Village Chants] Raise the flowers! Ring the bells! Tell the sun we love it well! [Village Chorus] EVERYBODY’S HERE! [Deep Male Voice] EVERYBODY? [Sudden Silence] [Female Whisper] Not the one in the mirror. [Final Drop – Euphoric, Catchy, Unhinged] THE HAPPIEST HAUNT! Clap your hands and stamp your feet! Come get lost inside the beat! Buzz, buzz, honeybee! You belong to you and me! Round and round the old oak tree! EVERYBODY DANCE WITH ME! [Female Whisper – Over Fading Music] Don’t forget to smile… [Outro – Slowing Bee Hum, Detuned Music Box] [Village Voices – Distant and Cheerful] Good morning… We missed you… [Female Whisper] Wake up, sunshine… The flowers are dancing… [Deep Male Whisper] See you next summer. [One Crooked Bell – Sudden Silence]
