Tubby (tim hauser)
I want to be seen,
I want to be heard;
My dream has always been
To sing like a bird.
Why cant I be
Content to just be me?
Why cant I be
Just the best that I can be?
I dont like to see me
Feeling so unhappy;
I would much rather see me
Very, very happy.

Tubby (tim hauser)
Oh, the duty of a tuba
When the others sing, tra-la,
Is to sound just like a tuba
And say, oom-pah.
But when youve got to march all day,
Not only march, but also play,
You start to lose your breath and huff,
And instead of oom-pah,
All you say is puff,puff, puff.
Im a very sad tuba
cause Ive lost my oom-pah
Nothings left for me to do now
But go, puffpuffpuff
