honeybee

honeybee, follow me down
honeybee, follow me down

you're a yellow morning massacre
shirtless in the sudden glare
I lean into the shadow
placing all my weight into the air

and I don't like this city
it's ugly and it's mean
I miss the way my skin smells
after rolling round in green

honeybee, follow me down
honeybee, follow me down

cause the creepy guy just keeps on getting creepier
come on baby, keep your crazy to yourself
well, I don't know these flowers, I don't know who brings them spring
but it's a little closer when you look at me

you got a rose-petal haircut
you got a tea-kettle smile
you got some truth in your pocket -
baby, it's been a while

you know I figured out how to be happy
if you wanted I might tell
but you just turn around and stare at me
trying to wrap my brain around your urban sexuality
getting tangled up in my tv screen and a little yellow summer song

oh, honeybee, I'm missing you now
honeybee, I'm missing you now

cause there's a river in every person
you got your toes in mine
so let's just dangle through the afternoon
and fake like we can fly

come on, honeybee - I'm missing you now
honeybee, follow me down
follow me, follow me down…
