Here are the full lyrics to Eiffel 65's "Blue (Da Ba Dee)":

[Intro]
Yo, listen up, here's a story
About a little guy that lives in a blue world
And all day and all night and everything he sees is just blue
Like him inside and outside
Blue his house with a blue little window and a blue Corvette
And everything is blue for him
And himself and everybody around
'Cause he ain't got nobody to listen (To listen, to listen)

[Chorus]
I'm Blue ? da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye
I'm Blue ? da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye

[Verse]
I have a blue house with a blue window
Blue is the color of all that I wear
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue
Blue are the people here that walk around
Blue like my Corvette, it's in and outside
Blue are the words I say and what I think
Blue are the feelings that live inside me

[Chorus]
I'm Blue ? da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye
I'm Blue ? da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye

[Verse]
I have a blue house with a blue window
Blue is the color of all that I wear
Blue are the streets and all the trees are too
I have a girlfriend and she is so blue
Blue are the people here that walk around
Blue like my Corvette, it's in and outside
Blue are the words I say and what I think
Blue are the feelings that live inside me

[Chorus]
I'm Blue ? da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye
I'm Blue ? da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye

[Bridge]
Inside and outside
Blue his house with a blue little window and a blue Corvette
And everything is blue for him
And hisself and everybody around
'Cause he ain't got nobody to listen (To listen)

[Chorus]
I'm Blue ? da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye
I'm Blue ? da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye, da ba dee da ba dye
Da ba dee da ba dye

La Feria (The Fair) is a Spanish fiesta! All the sights and sounds of a traditional Spanish street festival.
Paul Lacome wrote mostly operas-bouffes, light comic operas. That same drama and delight comes through in this piece. Originally written for orchestra, there have been many popular arrangements for band. I have arranged it for Clarinet Quartet without losing any of the Spanish tradition or dramatic character of the piece.
The Suite is in 3 sections. The first is entitled Los Toros (The Bulls). The running of the bulls is a tradition of nearly every Spanish fair. This highly energetic and rhythmic section is traditional Spanish fiesta music at its best. The second section is entitled La Reja (loosely-The Gate). This one is in the form of a Serenade. Every fair has a street barred off with a special archway entrance or gate. Inside, tents are set up serving local wine. Strolling street musicians will visit each tent and serenade. This section is scaled back dynamically and also in texture to imitate the solo or duo strolling musician. For the B theme of this section I move the melody to the Clarinet 3 part down low. I like to amuse myself and think of this brief growling melody as a tipsy patron of the tent singing back to the musicians. The street musicians then quickly resume their original song. The final section is entitled La Zarzuela. The Zarzuela is a uniquely Spanish comic opera that is heavy on dance and spoken dialogue. It has much in common with the American vaudeville shows. This section is in the form of a brisk waltz, another high energy rhythmic dance where Clarinet 2 takes the B theme melody.
This piece is of Advanced Intermediate difficulty due to constant movement, articulations, rhythm, and range. Clarinet 1 in particular uses the full range of the instrument.
