Hello lovely bees
I know we're worried about that DDT, like Joni said
But now we've got a new problem on our hands
Thought we were moving forward
But we're just moving back, back, back
It's pretty clear that we cannot last
Because if you go, then so do we
We got to worry 'bout those birds and bees
And all the pretty trees
Oh, it's quite concerning me
And if you go, then so do we
We got to worry 'bout those birds and bees
And all the butterflies
All that's passing by in the skies
And below, on the ground, all around
And pretty soon they'll say, "Bye bye"
Fifty-thousand dropping dead
But the thought's just passin' above our heads
Like clouds in the sky that roll on by
Without a second glance
They got those neo-nic seeds, coated in the palms of their hands
Nothing's ever as it seems
The world is not what it seems
Hello lovely bees
I know we're worried about that DDT
But please don't fly away
I promise we'll fix our ways
If you go, then so do we
We got to worry 'bout those birds and bees
And all the pretty trees
Oh it's quite concerning me
If you go, then so do we
We got to worry 'bout those birds and bees
And all the butterflies
All that's passing by in the skies
And below, on the ground, all around
And pretty soon they'll say, "Bye bye"
