Birds and Bees Lyrics & Tabs by Agent Ribbons
Birds and Bees
guitar chords lyrics
the birds used to nest
in that hole in your chest
when you'd sleep in the leaves and the hay
laying still as a stone
a boy dreaming alone
must have been a very sweet place to stay
and here on our bed
it is none but my head
that finds home in this heart beating burrow
the birds came and went
now my love pays the rent
for a heart that is dead, fast and thorough
sticky and sweet
the orange trees are in heat
and the summer air is good enough to eat
sticky and sweet
the orange trees are in heat
and the summer air is good enough to eat
sticky and sweet
the bees are buzzing all around me
because they heard you call me honey (x2)
i used to play
and for hours i had stayed
among the acres of forgotten lots
and nature i'd lusted
as my playground rusted
a kingdom i nearly forgot
to my silly dreams
for a creature who seemed
to harvest such simple gladness that shook me
i trembled to find
you're not in my mind
and the sting of your proof didn't hurt me
