lyrics

Stay awhile, we can speak in smiles
And I swear I'll be here waiting.
The bumble bee don't make honey
But its not a creature worth hating.
Can you see the frantic mess
When you look me in the eye.
This grin may be a mask
But it sure as hell ain't no disguise.

I may not be a honey bee
but just give me a chance you'll see
That other kinds of bugs can be just as sweet.
Dragonflies can pollinate, ladybugs are pretty great
Crickets like to stay up late and sing at the stars.
Aphids drink the dew from leaves, butterflies have pretty wings
Mantises will eat the bugs that sting at your feet.
Ants will clean up all your crumbs, worms they never hurt no one.
Spiders like to eat the bugs that buzz in your face.
Buzz in your face.
Buzz in your face.

I may not be a honey bee
But that don't mean that I can't be
Some other sort of crawly thing
That makes something sweet.
I'll stick around a little while
Writing songs that make me smile
And maybe you'll think these words
Taste like honey.
Taste like honey.
Taste like honey.

Stay awhile, we can speak in smiles
And I swear I'll be here waiting.
The bumble bee don't make honey
But its not a creature worth hating.
Can you see the frantic mess
When you look me in the eye.
This grin may be a mask
But it sure as hell ain't no disguise.

I may not be a honey bee
but just give me a chance you'll see
That other kinds of bugs can be just as sweet.
Earwigs eat up rotten leaves, Stick bugs don't want to be seen
Fireflies turn summer nights into Christmas time.
Water-striders dance around, pill bugs just chill underground
Slugs and snails, slimy trials, look just like snot.
Caterpillars feed the birds, cicadas just want to be heard.
Fruit flies let you know when all your produce goes bad.
Produce goes bad.
Produce goes bad.

I may not be a honey bee
But that don't mean that I can't be
Some other sort of crawly thing
That makes something sweet.
I'll stick around a little while
Writing songs that make me smile
And maybe you'll think these words
Taste like honey.
Taste like honey.
Taste like honey.
