Bee In Your Bonnet

(album: Slow Motion - 2002)

I keep on churning away
But pay no mind
You don't know nothing 'bout me
But that's alright
I tell you true that I'll be there
And that's for sure
You got to let me go everywhere
Let me through that door
Let me through that door

You say you got a bee in your bonnet
You know for every sting there's a cure
But don't you put your finger right on it
You'll only make it hurt all the more
I doubt if you'll be liable to read it in the Bible
I ain't gonna say anymore

You can't build enough in a row
But don't kid yourself
You gotta know they're all insane
They going riding on the range
I don't need no hi-fly strutter
Go babe, you're driving me crazy
You got a new shining beau
It don't pay to love
It don't pay to love

You say you got a bee in your bonnet
You know for every sting there's a cure
But don't you put your finger right on it
You'll only make it hurt all the more
I doubt if you be liable to read it in the Bible
I ain't gonna say anymore

Well there you go blaming yourself
So there you go hiding so deep in your shell
You better not cry when your baby comes home
Yeah you know she's gonna find out somehow
You're having a breakdown right here and now
I guess you don't know where you're headed for now
It's okay
You're going to live to see another day

Lie, cheat, and beg, borrow, steal
Gotta find a way to be real
Show me something I ain't seen before
We're gonna make it through that door
You may be in love and love it's true
But it's a romance that you can't use
Give me something and take it away
You're gonna get it right someday
You're gonna get it right someday

You say you got a bee in your bonnet
You know for every sting there's a cure
But don't you put your finger right on it
You'll only make it hurt all the more
I doubt if you be liable to read it in the Bible
I ain't going to say anymore

But there you go blaming yourself
And there you go hiding so deep in your shell
You better not cry when your baby comes home
And you know she's gonna find out somehow
You're having a breakdown right here and now
I guess you don't know where you're heading for now
It's okay
You're going to live to see another day

Well there you go blaming yourself
There you go hiding so deep in your shell
You better not cry when your baby comes home
Yeah you know she's gonna find out somehow
You're having a breakdown right here and now
I guess you don't know where you're headed for now
That's okay
You're going to live to fight another day
