Lyrics
Chorus
It’s the Bees Knees, and just take it from me
There’s one thing I want to say
You’re going to hear it night and day
In almost every way
It’s always Bees Knees when the violin man
Just makes up his mind to please
And when he starts to play
That’s when you’ll say
“It’s sure the old Bees Knees”
Patter
When you start a-stepping you’ll understand
Very soon how this tune goes
For you’ll get a feelin’ that’s simply grand
Right from your head to your toes
For this syncopated tune will make you sure forget
Your sorrows and all other cares
Without showing you’re knowin’ you’re goin’ at all
You’re climbing the golden stairs
Performance
