Lyrics
[intro]
[verse 1]
Busy bee, you’re working day and night,
From flower to hive, you’re always in flight,
But you never let your mind alight,
Do you even realize your plight?
[verse 2]
Your work serves as a distraction,
From your mind and its abstraction.
You work frantically to serve the queen,
But is that what life’s supposed to mean?
[chorus]
Busy, busy, busy bee,
You’re avoiding something, that’s plain to see,
You toil in your botanic quest,
To hide from the thoughts that come with rest.
[ostinato]
Busy bee ooh busy busy bee!
[instrumental interlude]
[verse 3]
When we say slow down you think it’s funny,
You say how else will I make enough honey?
But you’re avoiding thoughts that make you panic,
When you take on a workload so gigantic.
[verse 4]
You have such dedication and drive,
You want to be the best bee in the hive,
When you don’t contribute you feel guilty,
But you are more than your efficiency.
[chorus]
Busy, busy, busy bee,
You’re avoiding something, that’s plain to see,
You toil in your botanic quest,
To hide from the thoughts that come with rest.
[ostinato]
Slow it down busy bee!
[verse 5]
The other bees are not so stressed,
They don’t feel bad when they take their rest.
They focus on what works for themselves,
They’re not trying to keep up with everyone else.
[verse 6]
So busy bee, take a pause and figure out your life,
Or else you may end up in strife.
Ease up on that frantic pace,
Because this life is not a race.
Prioritize yourself and other pieces will fall into place.
That will keep a smile on your face.
[chorus]
Busy, busy, busy bee,
You’re avoiding something, that’s plain to see,
You toil in your botanic quest,
To hide from the thoughts that come with rest.
