Myla Goldberg is a young New York author who wrote the novella "Bee Season," about grade school spelling bees. Eliza is the main character. I've never read the book, but I think the other names are characters in there as well.
Playing with the funny phrases makes you pay attention to the words themselves, which is appropriate for a song (sort of) about spelling bees. Also, they're catchy things to put in a really catchy song.
Bee Season "comes around" every year, i.e., the annual spelling bee.
