lyrics

Little bees fill the trees, mama's on the floor again
Little bees fill the trees, papa needs his medicine
Little bees fill the trees, mama's on the floor again
Little bees fill the trees, papa needs his medicine

This is how it happens, a single spark
The swarm is burning, all hope is lost
One whole generation burned at the stake
No retaliation, for goodness sake

Swing like you mean it

Little bees fill the trees, mama's on the floor again
Little bees fill the trees, papa needs his medicine

Apple eyes soaking in piss and sweat
They watched the trial, they hold the debt
So run, run, run, my rabbits, but remember this
Those dogs are hungry, so they won't quit

Swing like you mean it
Swing like you mean it

If two wrongs do not make a right
Than strength don't make a man
Now take this pill and drink this swill
Prepare to feel my hand

I know no one wants to be alone
But these bees will once more have their home
Your time has come...

Swing like you mean it
