Housefly housefly
little mouse of a house fly
sitting on the Queen’s Anne’s Lace
looking no more out of place
than in a field, in a field
on the branch or in a field
sorry for the fuss I made
when you sojourned in my glade
down the street in the park
what a life of mirth and lark
oh housefly housefly
come again to spend a while
to see your world from your point of view
and see the colors in so many hues
oh housefly oh housefly
we’ll see you again by and by
